Ingredients
-
1/4 cup ghee or butter, divided
-
1 tablespoon olive oil
-
1 lb Yukon gold potatoes, diced into 1/2-inch cubes
-
3 garlic cloves, minced
-
1 teaspoon dried thyme
-
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
-
1/2 teaspoon sea salt, plus more to taste
-
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper, plus more to taste
-
1 1/4 lb sirloin steak, cut into 1/2-inch cubes

Fresh chopped parsley, for garnish
Instructions
-
Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil and 2 tablespoons ghee.
-
Once hot, add diced potatoes and season with garlic, thyme, oregano, salt, and pepper.
-
Cook undisturbed for 2–3 minutes, then stir. Continue cooking 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are crispy and fork-tender. Remove and set aside.
-
Increase heat to medium-high. Add remaining ghee, then steak cubes in a single layer. Season with salt and pepper.
-
Sear steak without stirring for 2 minutes, then stir and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden brown.
-
Return potatoes to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for another minute.
-
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot.
Notes
-
For best results, don’t overcrowd the skillet—cook steak in batches if needed.
-
Swap ghee for butter or use a dairy-free alternative to suit your preference.
-
Leftovers reheat well in a skillet or air fryer.
