Ingredients
Scale
Steak and Vegetables
- 2 pounds beef sirloin steak, cubed
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 large potatoes, diced
Other Ingredients
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat and Brown Steak: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large skillet over medium-high heat, warm the olive oil. Add the cubed beef sirloin steak and cook until browned on all sides. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
- Sauté Onions and Garlic: In the same skillet, add the chopped onions and minced garlic. Sauté until the onions become translucent and the garlic is fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
- Assemble Casserole: In a baking dish, create layers by starting with the diced potatoes, followed by the browned steak, and then the sautéed onions and garlic. Pour the beef broth evenly over the mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Bake Covered: Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 45 minutes at 375°F (190°C), allowing the potatoes to cook through and the flavors to meld.
- Add Cheese and Finish Baking: Remove the foil and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top. Return the casserole to the oven and bake uncovered for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and starts to brown slightly.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove from oven and garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy this warm, satisfying meal with family or friends.
Notes
- You can substitute beef sirloin with ribeye or chuck for a different texture and flavor.
- If you prefer a creamier casserole, add a splash of cream or milk before baking.
- For a spicier kick, sprinkle some chili flakes when layering the steak and potatoes.
- Make sure to dice potatoes evenly for uniform cooking.
- Leftovers keep well refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheat beautifully in the oven or microwave.
