Garlic Butter Steak & Potatoes

Nothing beats a hearty meal after a day of hiking, fishing, or exploring the campground. This Garlic Butter Steak & Potatoes recipe is packed with flavor, comes together in one skillet or cast iron pan, and is perfect for cooking over a campfire or on a camping stove.

Ingredients

• 1½ lbs sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized pieces
• 1½ lbs baby potatoes, halved
• 4 tablespoons butter
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• ½ teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional)
• Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Instructions

1. Cook the Potatoes

Heat the olive oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add the potatoes, seasoning them with salt, pepper, paprika, and Italian seasoning. Cook for 15–20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and fork-tender.

2. Cook the Steak

Push the potatoes to one side of the skillet. Add the steak bites and cook for 2–3 minutes per side until browned and cooked to your preferred doneness.

3. Make the Garlic Butter

Lower the heat and add the butter and minced garlic. Stir everything together until the butter melts and coats both the steak and potatoes. Cook for another 1–2 minutes until fragrant.

4. Serve

Sprinkle with fresh parsley and Parmesan cheese if desired. Serve immediately while hot.
