10 oz beef top sirloin steak, 1 1/4 inches thick, patted dry
1½ tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
1 tbsp avocado oil
1 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
9 oz red potatoes, diced into 1/2 inch cubes
½ tsp garlic powder

Instructions

Prep 20 min · Cook 15 min

In a small bowl, mash the softened butter, minced garlic, and chopped parsley together with a pinch of the salt. Set the compound butter aside at room temperature.
Season the steak on both sides with three quarters of the remaining salt and all the black pepper. Heat half the avocado oil in the skillet over high heat until just smoking. Place the steak in the pan and cook for 4 minutes without moving. Flip the steak and cook for 4 minutes more, or 1 minute more per side for medium. If the steak is thinner than 1 1/4 inches, reduce the time by for 1 minute, flip, and cook for 1 minute more. Done when browned and registers 130 to 145°F.
Transfer the steak to a plate and immediately top with the garlic-herb butter. Let the steak rest for 5 minutes. While the steak rests, wipe out the skillet and begin the potatoes.
Heat the remaining avocado oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced potatoes in a single layer. Cook for 5 minutes without stirring to brown the bottoms.
Add the garlic powder and the rest of the salt to the potatoes. Stir once, then lower the heat to medium and cover the pan. Cook for 8 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until a fork slides easily into the cubes. Uncover and cook for 2 minutes more to crisp the edges. Done when tender and golden brown.
Return the potatoes to the plate with the steak. Spoon any melted butter and juices from the resting plate over both the steak and the potatoes before serving.
