Ingredients

For the Beef Bites:

  • 1 lb (450g) beef steak (sirloin or ribeye), cut into bite-sized cubes

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tsp salt

  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional, for a hint of heat)

  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce

  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

For the Creamy Mashed Potatoes:

  • 2 lbs (900g) potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks

  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter

  • 1/2 cup whole milk (or more for desired creaminess)

  • 1/4 cup sour cream (optional, for extra creaminess)

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

  • Fresh chives or parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

1. Prepare the Mashed Potatoes

  1. Place potato chunks in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a pinch of salt.

  2. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to medium and simmer for 15–20 minutes, or until potatoes are tender and easily pierced with a fork.

  3. Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot.

  4. Add butter, milk, and sour cream (if using). Mash until smooth and creamy.

  5. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover and keep warm while you cook the beef bites.

2. Cook the Beef Bites

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. Add the beef cubes in a single layer, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Sear for 2–3 minutes on each side until browned. Remove beef and set aside.

  3. Reduce heat to medium. Add butter to the same skillet. Once melted, add minced garlic and cook for 30–60 seconds until fragrant.

  4. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes.

  5. Return the beef bites to the skillet and toss to coat in the garlic butter sauce. Cook for an additional 1–2 minutes to ensure beef is heated through.

  6. Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the beef bites before serving.

3. Serve

  • Spoon a generous portion of creamy mashed potatoes onto each plate.

  • Top with garlic butter beef bites and drizzle any extra pan sauce over the top.

  • Garnish with additional parsley or chives.
