Ingredients
¼ cup ghee or butter, divided
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 lb Yukon gold potatoes, cut into ½ inch cubes
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon dried thyme
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon sea salt, plus more to taste
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper, plus more to taste
1 ¼ lb sirloin steak, cut into ½ inch cubes
Instructions
1. Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil and two tablespoons of ghee.
2. Add potatoes and season with garlic, thyme, oregano, salt, and pepper. Cook 8-10 minutes, stirring frequently, until golden and fork tender. Remove and set aside.
3. Increase heat to medium-high. Add remaining ghee. Add steak pieces and season lightly. Sear undisturbed for 2 minutes, then stir and cook 1-2 minutes until browned.
