Step 1: Prepare the Steak

1. Cut the steak into bite-sized cubes (about 1-inch pieces).
2. Pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
3. Season with salt, black pepper, and paprika. Toss to coat evenly.

Step 2: Cook the Potatoes

1. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.
2. Add potatoes and season with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and rosemary.
3. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 8-10 minutes until golden and crispy.
4. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3: Cook the Steak Bites

1. In the same skillet, heat 2 tbsp olive oil over high heat.
2. Add the steak bites in a single layer (work in batches if needed).
3. Sear for 2 minutes per side, flipping only once to get a perfect crust.
4. Reduce heat to medium-low, add 2 tbsp butter and minced garlic.
5. Toss the steak bites in the garlic butter for 1-2 minutes, ensuring they are well coated.

Step 4: Combine and Serve

1. Return the crispy potatoes to the skillet.
2. Add the remaining 1 tbsp butter and toss everything together.
3. Garnish with fresh thyme or parsley.
4. Serve hot and enjoy!
