How to Make Indulge in the perfect dinner that combines juicy steak bites, succulent shrimp, and tender roasted potatoes—your taste buds will thank you!
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This is the perfect temperature for roasting those potatoes to golden perfection.
- In a large bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Make sure they are well coated!
- Spread the seasoned potatoes out in a single layer on a baking sheet. This helps them get that nice crispy texture.
- Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and tender. You might want to flip them halfway through for even roasting.
- While the potatoes are roasting, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the steak bites to the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes, until they are browned and cooked to your desired level of doneness. I like mine medium-rare, but feel free to adjust!
- Remove the steak from the skillet and set it aside. In the same skillet, add the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they turn pink and opaque.
- Return the steak to the skillet, mixing it with the shrimp. Cook for an additional minute to let the flavors combine beautifully.
- Serve your delicious steak bites and shrimp alongside the roasted potatoes. Don’t forget to garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving!
Substitutions & Additions
- If you don’t have steak, chicken or tofu can be a great substitute.
- Feel free to use any small potatoes you have on hand—red or fingerling potatoes work wonderfully too.
- Add your favorite veggies like bell peppers or asparagus to the roasting pan for extra flavor and nutrition.
Tips for Success
- Ensure your skillet is hot before adding the steak to get a nice sear.
- Don’t overcrowd the potatoes on the baking sheet; this helps them roast evenly.
- You can prep the potatoes and season them ahead of time to save time during dinner.
