Ingredients
  

1 lb (450g) sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized pieces

4 tablespoons unsalted butter

4 garlic cloves, minced

1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped (or ½ teaspoon dried)

Salt and pepper, to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 lb (450g) Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cubed

½ cup heavy cream (or milk, for a lighter version)

½ cup sour cream

Chives or parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Potatoes: Place the cubed Yukon Gold potatoes in a large pot. Cover with cold water, season with salt, and bring to a boil. Cook for about 15-20 minutes or until fork-tender. Drain and set aside.

    Make the Creamy Mash: In the same pot, add the drained potatoes, heavy cream, and sour cream. Mash with a potato masher until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Keep warm while you cook the steak.

      Cook the Steak Bites: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steak bites with salt and pepper. Once the oil is hot, add the steak bites in a single layer (you might need to do this in batches). Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until nicely browned and cooked to your preferred doneness.

        Add Flavor: Reduce the heat to medium and push the steak bites to one side of the skillet. In the empty side, add the butter, minced garlic, and thyme. Allow the butter to melt and garlic to become fragrant (about 1-2 minutes). Toss everything together in the skillet, ensuring the steak bites are coated in the garlic butter.

          Serve: On individual plates, place a generous scoop of creamy mashed potatoes. Top with garlic butter steak bites, ensuring to drizzle any remaining garlic butter from the skillet over the top.

            Garnish: Sprinkle chopped chives or parsley on top for an added burst of flavor and color.
