1 pound Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into bite-sized cubes

1 teaspoon garlic powder, divided
# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon garlic and herb butter. Once melted, add the Yukon Gold potatoes and season with ½ teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon pepper. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for 10 to 12 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent burning, until potatoes are fork-tender and golden brown.
02 -
While potatoes are cooking, season the sirloin steak cubes with ½ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon pepper, and ½ teaspoon garlic powder.
03 -
Push the cooked potatoes to one side of the skillet or remove them if concerned about burning. Add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon garlic and herb butter to the empty side and increase heat to medium-high. Add the seasoned steak bites and sear for 3 to 4 minutes per side until browned and cooked to preferred doneness. Cook in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding. If cooking in batches, remove potatoes before searing steak.

Reduce heat to medium-low. Add additional garlic and herb butter if desired, allowing it to melt and coat both steak and potatoes. Toss gently to evenly coat. Adjust seasoning to taste before serving.
# Helpful Hints:
01 -
For best sear, ensure the cast iron skillet is fully heated before adding oil. Avoid overcrowding to prevent steaming. If potatoes begin to burn, remove temporarily and reintroduce after steak cooking.
