Blackstone garlic steak bites and potatoes cooked on a griddle until the potatoes are golden and tender, then tossed with garlic butter for a glossy coating. Cubed sirloin cooks quickly and finishes in the same pan so everything stays juicy and flavorful.

Ingredients
  

Steak and potatoes
  • 1.5 lb sirloin steak Cut into 1-inch cubes.
  • 1.5 lb baby potatoes Halved.
  • 5 tbsp butter
  • 8 garlic Minced (about 8 cloves).
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 0.25 salt To taste.
  • 0.25 pepper To taste.
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley Chopped, for garnish.

Equipment

  • 1 cast iron skillet
  • 1 sheet pan

Method
 

Pre-cook the potatoes
  1. Heat a griddle to medium-high and add 2 tablespoons olive oil until it shimmers.
  2. Season potato halves with salt, pepper, and paprika, then cook on the griddle for 12-15 minutes until golden and tender, turning as needed for even browning.
  3. Move the potatoes to the side to make space for the steak and keep them warm.
Cook the steak and finish in garlic butter
  1. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the cleared side of the griddle.
  2. Season the steak cubes with salt and pepper, then cook for 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally, until cooked to your desired doneness.
  3. Add butter and minced garlic to the griddle and toss steak and potatoes until they’re swimming in garlic butter and glossy, about 1-2 minutes.
  4. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

Pro tip: Keep the griddle hot enough to get golden color on the potatoes; if they start to steam, raise heat slightly and spread them out. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheat on a skillet or griddle until warmed through. Freezing isn’t recommended because potatoes can turn mealy. For a lighter option, use olive oil with a reduced amount of butter (e.g., 2-3 tbsp) and finish with garlic for flavor.
