Ingredients
  

1.5 pounds sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized tips

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried)

1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried)

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and chopped into uniform chunks

½ cup heavy cream

¼ cup whole milk

4 tablespoons salted butter, softened

½ teaspoon garlic powder

Additional salt, to taste

Fresh parsley, finely chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Potatoes: In a large pot, place the potato chunks and cover them with cold water, ensuring they are fully submerged. Add a generous pinch of salt to the water. Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and let it simmer. Continue cooking until the potatoes are fork-tender, approximately 15-20 minutes. Once cooked, drain the potatoes and return them to the pot.

    Make the Mashed Potatoes: To the drained potatoes, add the heavy cream, whole milk, softened salted butter, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt. Use a potato masher or hand mixer to mash the ingredients together until they achieve a smooth and creamy consistency. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Keep the mashed potatoes covered and warm.

      Cook the Steak Tips: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the bite-sized steak tips generously with salt and freshly cracked black pepper. Carefully add the steak tips to the hot skillet and sear them for 3-4 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are browned and cooked to your liking. Remove the cooked steak tips from the skillet and set them aside on a plate.

        Prepare the Garlic Butter Sauce: In the same skillet used for the steak, lower the heat to medium. Add 2 tablespoons of the unsalted butter and allow it to melt. Stir in the minced garlic, chopped rosemary, and thyme, sautéing for approximately 1-2 minutes until the mixture is fragrant, being careful to stir frequently to avoid burning the garlic.

          Combine Steak and Sauce: Return the cooked steak tips to the skillet, tossing them in the garlic herb butter sauce until well coated. Cook for an additional minute to ensure the steak tips are heated through and infused with flavor.

            Serve: On each plate, serve a generous scoop of the creamy mashed potatoes. Top them with the succulent garlic butter steak tips and drizzle any excess garlic butter sauce from the skillet over the steak. Finish with a sprinkle of finely chopped fresh parsley for an added pop of color and freshness.
