Preparation Steps

• Start by making the red mashed potatoes according to the linked recipe directions.
• Toss the steak cubes with a few drizzles of oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, Kosher salt (1 teaspoon), and ground black pepper (½ teaspoon). Let it sit for 15 minutes.
• Heat a large cast iron skillet over high heat. It needs to be very hot. Add a few drizzles of oil, then sear the seasoned steak until you get a nice sear, about 2 minutes or longer on each side, depending on your preferred level of doneness. Remove from the pan.
• Lower to medium-low heat and wait for the pan to cool slightly. Then, melt the unsalted butter, and add minced garlic and shallots. Sauté for just a few seconds until fragrant.
• Return the steak bites, tossing to combine. Transfer the steak to a bowl, along with only half of the garlic butter from the pan. Keep the rest in the pan to make the sauce.
• To the same pan, stir in heavy cream and bring to a low simmer for just a few seconds. Turn off the heat, and add the grated parmesan and stir until thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add the chopped parsley.
• Serve the garlic butter steak bites over the prepared mashed potatoes, and spoon over the creamy sauce on top. Garnish with more parsley. Enjoy!
