Steak and Potato Skillet Dinner
This one-pan meal combines tender steak, crispy potatoes, and savory onions, perfect for busy weeknights.
Ingredients
Main ingredients
- 1 lb steak (sirloin or ribeye)
- 4 medium potatoes (diced)
- 1 onion (sliced)
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh herbs (like rosemary or thyme) for seasoning
Instructions
Preparation
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Season the steak with salt and pepper and add it to the skillet. Sear on both sides until browned.
- Remove steak from skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the diced potatoes, sliced onion, and minced garlic. Cook until the potatoes are tender and golden, about 15-20 minutes.
- Slice the steak and return it to the skillet, mixing it with the potatoes and onions.
- Cook everything together for an additional 5 minutes to heat through and let the flavors meld.
- Garnish with fresh herbs before serving.
Notes
For extra flavor, marinate the steak for a few hours before cooking. Experiment with different vegetables, like bell peppers or carrots, for variety. If you like it spicy, add a pinch of red pepper flakes when cooking the potatoes. Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. To reheat, warm in a skillet or microwave until heated through. Freezing is possible but best enjoyed fresh.
