Tips & Variations
- Use fresh herbs for the best aroma and flavor, but dried herbs can be substituted in smaller quantities if needed.
- For extra crispy potatoes, let them sit in the hot pan undisturbed for a couple of minutes before stirring.
- Swap ribeye for sirloin or filet mignon if preferred; just watch cooking times to avoid overcooking.
Storage
Store leftover steak bites and potatoes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, warm gently in a pan over medium-low heat or in the microwave until heated through to keep the steak tender and the potatoes crisp.

FAQs
Can I use other types of potatoes for this recipe?
Yes, Yukon Gold or red potatoes work well due to their creamy texture. Avoid starchy potatoes like russets if you want the pieces to hold their shape firmly.
How do I know when the steak bites are done?
Searing the steak cubes for 3-4 minutes on high heat ensures a nice crust while keeping the inside juicy. If you prefer your steak more well-done, cook an extra minute or two but be careful not to overcook and dry them out.

- 1/2 tbsp fresh chives, chopped
- 1/2 tbsp fresh thyme, chopped
- 1/2 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
Instructions
- Prepare the Potatoes: Cut the potatoes into chunks and soak them in ice water for about 15 minutes to remove excess starch. Drain and pat dry thoroughly before cooking.
- Season the Steak Bites: Cube the ribeye steak into 1 x 1 inch pieces and season evenly with 2 tablespoons of Onion Butter Rub, ensuring each cube is well coated.

Notes
- For best results, soak the potatoes in ice water for at least 15 minutes to remove starch and achieve a better texture during cooking.

- Adjust the amount of garlic according to your preference for pungency.
- Make sure the pan is very hot before searing the steak for a nice caramelized crust.
- This recipe is easily adaptable to other cuts of steak or vegetables if desired.
