📝 Ingredients

For the Steak Bites:

  • 300g (10 oz) sirloin or ribeye steak, cut into bite-sized cubes
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tbsp olive oil or butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 tsp chili flakes (optional)
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

For the Herbed Potatoes:

  • 2 medium potatoes, diced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp dried rosemary
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme
  • Salt & pepper
  • Optional: 1 tsp grated Parmesan

🧑‍🍳 Instructions

1. Prepare the Steak

  • Pat steak cubes dry with a paper towel. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a large non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add olive oil.
  • Add steak cubes in a single layer (do not overcrowd), and sear for 2–3 minutes until browned.
  • Flip and cook another 2 minutes.

2. Add the Glaze

  • Reduce heat to medium. Add minced garlic and stir for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  • Stir in honey, soy sauce, Worcestershire, and chili flakes.
  • Let the glaze bubble and thicken for 1–2 minutes, coating the steak.

3. Make the Potatoes (while steak rests)

  • In a second pan or after removing steak, sauté potatoes in olive oil over medium heat.
  • Add herbs, salt, and pepper. Cook 10–15 minutes until golden and tender.
  • Finish with a sprinkle of Parmesan if desired.

4. Serve

  • Plate steak bites with herbed potatoes. Drizzle leftover glaze on top.
  • Garnish with parsley and serve immediately.

💡 Tips & Variations

  • Swap potatoes with garlic butter rice or mashed cauliflower.
  • Want crispier steak? Finish under broiler for 2–3 minutes.
  • No steak? Try the glaze with chicken or tofu too!
