Garlic Butter Steak Bites with Fries

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare your fries according to package directions or homemade method until golden and crispy, then season with salt and set aside on a plate.

Step 2: Pat the steak cubes dry with paper towels and season generously with salt, black pepper, and paprika on all sides.

Step 3: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over high heat until just smoking, then add the steak bites in a single layer.

Step 4: Sear for 2-3 minutes per side for medium-rare, working in batches if needed to avoid crowding the pan.

Step 5: Reduce heat to medium, add butter and minced garlic, then toss the steak bites for 30 seconds to coat in the fragrant sauce.

Step 6: Plate the steak bites alongside the crispy fries, then top everything with grated parmesan and fresh parsley before serving.

Storage and Reheating Tips

Store cooked steak bites and fries separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This keeps the fries from becoming soggy.

Reheat the steak bites in a skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes to restore their juicy texture. For fries, use an oven at 375°F for about 5 minutes to recrisp them.

The garlic butter sauce can be made fresh when reheating for the best flavor. Simply warm a touch of butter with minced garlic and toss with the reheated steak bites.
