Here’s what you’ll need to create these mouthwatering steak bites:
- For the Steak Bites:
- 1 pound of sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- For the Sweet Potatoes and Peppers:
- 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional Garnish:
- Fresh parsley, chopped
- Lime wedges for squeezing
Instructions
- Preheat Your Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). This will ensure that your sweet potatoes and peppers roast to perfection!
- Prepare the Vegetables:
- In a large mixing bowl, toss the cubed sweet potatoes and sliced bell peppers with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Make sure everything is evenly coated.
- Spread the veggies in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. This helps them roast evenly and prevents sticking.
- Roast the Vegetables:
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for about 20-25 minutes. Halfway through, give them a good stir to ensure even cooking. You want the sweet potatoes to be tender and slightly caramelized, and the peppers to be vibrant and soft.
- Season the Steak:
- While the veggies are roasting, it’s time to season the steak. In a medium bowl, combine the steak pieces with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat the steak bites evenly with the seasonings.
- Sear the Steak Bites:
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned steak bites in a single layer (you may need to do this in batches). Sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are browned and cooked to your desired level of doneness. For medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 130°F (54°C).
- Remember, don’t overcrowd the skillet! Giving the steak enough space ensures a beautiful sear.
- Combine Everything:
- Once the steak is cooked, remove it from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring tender bites.
- Once the sweet potatoes and peppers are ready, remove them from the oven and mix in the steak bites. Toss everything together to combine the flavors.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Transfer the steak bites, sweet potatoes, and peppers to a serving platter. For an extra touch, sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley and serve with lime wedges on the side for a zesty kick.
