Ingredient Notes & Details
-
Steak: Sirloin, New York Strip, or Ribeye work best. Look for good marbling and cut them into uniform 1-inch cubes for even searing.
-
Baby Potatoes: Yellow or red baby potatoes are ideal because their thin skins crisp up beautifully without needing to be peeled.
-
Garlic Butter: Use unsalted butter and at least 4–5 cloves of freshly minced garlic for that signature punchy flavor.
-
Herb Blend: Dried rosemary, thyme, and parsley are shown in the image, providing an earthy, garden-fresh finish.
