Garlic Butter Steak Bites with Crispy Fries

Instructions

Step 1: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

Step 2: Season your beef cubes generously with salt, black pepper, and dried herbs.

Step 3: Working in batches, sear the steak bites for 2-3 minutes per side until deeply browned. Don’t overcrowd the pan.

Step 4: Remove the cooked steak to a plate and set aside.

Step 5: In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat and add minced garlic, stirring constantly for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 6: Return the steak bites to the pan and toss to coat thoroughly in the garlic butter sauce. Cook for 1-2 minutes more.

Step 7: Prepare your French fries according to package directions until golden and crispy.

Step 8: Plate the steak bites alongside the fries and drizzle with any remaining garlic butter sauce.

Storage and Reheating Tips

Store leftover steak bites and fries in separate airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The steak will stay moist and flavorful when kept separate from the fries.

To reheat, warm the steak bites gently in a skillet over medium-low heat with a splash of butter to restore that tender, juicy texture. Avoid the microwave, as it can dry out the meat.

For the fries, reheat in a 375°F oven for 5-7 minutes to restore their crispiness, or use an air fryer for even better results.
