Place the potatoes and two-thirds of the minced garlic in a small pot. Add enough water to cover the potatoes by an inch and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes until very tender.
Season the steak with half the black pepper and about half the remaining salt. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, flip, and cook for 3 to 4 minutes more. Remove from the pan to a plate and let rest. Done when browned and reaches 130 to 145°F.
In the same skillet used for the steak, add the green beans, the rest of the garlic, and the water. Cover and steam over medium heat for 5 minutes until tender and the water has evaporated. Season with a pinch of salt.
While the beans steam, drain the potatoes, reserving a splash of water. Return potatoes to the pot with the milk, butter, and remaining salt and pepper. Mash until smooth, adding reserved water if needed for creaminess.
Slice the rested steak across the grain. Plate the garlic mashed potatoes alongside the steak and green beans. Spoon any juices from the steak plate over the meat.
