My steak-loving son is always begging for steak every single week. He loves steak and potatoes, and I love easy meals, so it is a win-win situation! This meal is so delicious, though, that everyone loves it, even those who normally prefer chicken or pork.

These small steak bites are covered with a delicious buttery garlic herb sauce that brings the most delicious flavor. It makes my mouth water just thinking about it! Plus, this is a one-skillet meal which means that since everything is cooked in the same pan, you get a blend of all of the flavors all at once. Trust me because this isn’t a recipe that you want to miss!

Ingredients in Steak Bites

These garlic butter herb steak bites pack a punch with the flavor, and yet achieving that delicious taste is so easy! Check out the recipe card at the bottom of the post for all of the exact measurements.

  • Olive Oil: You will cook the steak and potatoes in this.
  • Butter: I used unsalted butter in this recipe.
  • Yukon Gold Potatoes: Once you slice these up into quarters, then they will be the perfect size to complement the steak bites.
  • Garlic Cloves: You can use minced garlic if you don’t have fresh garlic cloves on hand. ½ teaspoon equals about 1 clove of garlic.
  • Dried Thyme, Rosemary, and Oregano: These dried herbs bring together a delicious aroma of flavors.
  • Sirloin Steaks: The better the cut of steak, the better your meat will turn out!
  • Salt and Pepper: These enhance all of the flavors in the steak bites.

Let’s Make Garlic Herb Butter Steak Bites

  1. Cook the Potatoes: Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat and then add olive oil and butter, potatoes, garlic, thyme, rosemary, and oregano. Cook for about 3 minutes, stir, and cook an additional 3 minutes until fork tender. Remove and set aside on a plate.
  2. Add Steak: Turn the skillet to high heat. Add the steak bites. Let the steak sear for a minute, and then continue to stir the steak until they are golden brown.
  3. Garnish: Top the steak with fresh chopped herbs (optional).
