Description

Tender steak bites marinated in garlic and balsamic vinegar, served with roasted baby gold potatoes and fresh green beans for a cozy weeknight dinner.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lb lean steak, trimmed & cubed into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tbsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp crushed red pepper (optional)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar (for glaze)
  • 2 tbsp low-sodium beef broth
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce (for glaze)
  • 1.5 lb baby gold potatoes, quartered
  • ½ tbsp olive oil (for potatoes)
  • ½ tsp salt (for potatoes)
  • ½ tsp black pepper (for potatoes)
  • ½ tbsp garlic powder (for potatoes)
  • 1 tsp paprika (for potatoes)
  • 12 oz fresh green beans, trimmed
  • ½ tbsp olive oil (for green beans)
  • ½ tsp salt (for green beans)
  • ½ tsp black pepper (for green beans)
  • ½ tbsp garlic powder (for green beans)

Instructions

  1. Marinate the steak: In a large bowl, combine the cubed steak, olive oil, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and optional crushed red pepper. Toss well to coat and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss the quartered potatoes with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for about 25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  3. Sear the steak bites: In a skillet over medium-high heat, add the marinated steak and minced garlic. Sear for 3-4 minutes until a nice crust develops, then set aside.
  4. Make the glaze: In the same skillet, combine balsamic vinegar, beef broth, honey, and soy sauce. Simmer and scrape up any bits from the pan until the glaze thickens, about 2-3 minutes.
  5. Add green beans to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes until tender yet crisp. Serve steak bites with potatoes and green beans, drizzled with the sweet-tangy glaze.

Notes

For best flavor, marinate the steak overnight. You can also swap steak for chicken or tofu for a different protein option.
