Ingredients
  

For the Garlic Butter Steak Bites
  • 1 lb sirloin steak cut into cubes
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley chopped
For the Cheesy Loaded Fries
  • 1 bag frozen crinkle fries or 4 potatoes cut into fries
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • Fresh parsley flakes

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Cut the sirloin into bite-sized cubes, roughly one and a half inches each. Generously season both sides with paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Working in batches, add steak cubes and sear for about two to three minutes per side until golden. Set aside on a clean plate.
  3. In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add minced garlic. Cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add butter and let it melt completely, stirring constantly.
  4. Return all steak bites to the skillet and toss gently in the garlic butter sauce. Simmer for one minute, then top with fresh chopped parsley.
  5. Prepare fries according to package directions if frozen, or bake fresh-cut fries at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for about 25 to 30 minutes until golden and crispy. Sprinkle with garlic powder while hot.
  6. Transfer hot fries to a serving plate and immediately sprinkle mozzarella and cheddar cheese over the top. Finish with a light sprinkle of fresh parsley flakes.

Notes

For best results, use a very hot pan when searing the steak to develop a caramelized crust. Do not overcrowd the skillet when searing. The cheese-loaded fries are best enjoyed fresh, though leftovers can be reheated in a 375-degree oven for about 8-10 minutes.
