Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs sirloin steak or ribeye, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
  • 5 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup whole milk or half-and-half
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 4 slices cooked bacon, crumbled
  • 2 green onions, sliced thin
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 large red bell pepper, cut into chunks
  • 1 zucchini, sliced
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Pat steak cubes dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  2. Preheat oven to 425°F. Toss bell pepper, zucchini, and broccoli with 2 tablespoons olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Spread on a lined baking sheet and roast for 18-20 minutes, flipping halfway.
  3. Place potato cubes in a large pot, cover with cold water, and add a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 12-15 minutes until fork-tender.
  4. Drain potatoes and return to pot. Add 4 tablespoons butter, 1/2 cup milk, 1 cup cheddar cheese, 1/4 cup sour cream, salt, and pepper. Mash until smooth. Fold in crumbled bacon and sliced green onions. Adjust seasoning.
  5. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a cast iron skillet over medium-high. Add steak cubes in a single layer and sear for 2-3 minutes per side until browned but still pink inside. Remove to a plate and tent with foil.
  6. Lower skillet heat to medium. Add 4 tablespoons butter and minced garlic. Stir for 30 seconds until fragrant. Pour in 1/2 cup heavy cream and 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, scraping up brown bits. Simmer for 2 minutes until slightly thickened.
  7. Return steak bites to pan and toss gently to coat in sauce. Simmer 1 minute to warm through. Sprinkle with parsley if desired.
  8. Spoon loaded mash onto plates, top with steak bites and sauce, and add roasted veggies on the side. Garnish with extra scallions or parsley.

Notes

Don’t overcrowd the pan when searing steak bites for best caramelization. Let steak and dairy ingredients come to room temperature for smoother sauce and even cooking. Taste mash before adding extra salt, as bacon and cheese are salty. Adapt veggies and mash mix-ins to your preference. For dairy-free, use vegan butter and coconut cream; for low-carb, swap potatoes for cauliflower.
