Ingredients
  

1 lb sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized cubes

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped

1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped

Salt and pepper to taste

1 lb baby potatoes

½ cup shredded cheddar cheese

¼ cup sour cream

2 tablespoons green onions, sliced

Instructions
 

Prepare the Potatoes: In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the baby potatoes and cook for about 15-20 minutes or until fork-tender. Drain and let them sit for a few minutes to cool slightly.

    Smash the Potatoes: Transfer the potatoes to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Using a potato masher or the bottom of a glass, gently smash each potato to about ½ inch thick.

      Cheesy Smashed Potatoes: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). In a small bowl, mix together melted butter (2 tablespoons), sour cream, and cheddar cheese. Spoon this mixture generously over the smashed potatoes and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

        Cook the Steak Bites: While the potatoes are roasting, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the cubes of steak in a single layer; avoid overcrowding the pan. Cook for about 2-3 minutes per side until browned and cooked to your desired doneness.

          Garlic and Herbs: Once the steak bites are cooked, lower the heat, and add the minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme to the skillet. Stir and cook for another minute until fragrant. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

            Serve It Up: Once the cheesy smashed potatoes are done baking, remove them from the oven. Plate the smashed potatoes next to the garlic butter steak bites.

              - Presentation Tips: Garnish the steak bites with freshly chopped parsley and ensure the cheesy smashed potatoes are served warm, topped with chopped green onions for an added touch of color and flavor.
