Ribeye Steak Bites and Cheesy Smashed Potatoes 
Ingredients:
For the Steak Bites:
1 lb ribeye steak (cut into bite-sized pieces)
2 tbsp olive oil 
3 cloves garlic (minced) 
1 tsp smoked paprika 
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp black pepper 
1 tbsp chopped parsley 
For the Cheesy Smashed Potatoes:
1 lb baby potatoes
2 tbsp butter 
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 tsp garlic powder
Salt & pepper to taste
Optional: sour cream or chives for garnish 
Let’s Make It Happen:
Cook the Steak Bites:
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season steak bites with paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper.
Sear steak bites for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat and sprinkle with parsley.
Prepare the Potatoes:
Boil baby potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 12–15 minutes. Drain and place on a greased baking sheet.
Gently smash each potato with the back of a spoon or a potato masher. Brush with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic powder, cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper.
Bake:
Broil the potatoes in the oven for 5–7 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve Together:
Plate the steak bites alongside the cheesy smashed potatoes. Add a dollop of sour cream or sprinkle with chives for extra flavor.
Tips for Extra Magic:
Swap cheddar for mozzarella or pepper jack for a fun twist.
Add a drizzle of balsamic glaze over the steak bites for sweetness. 
Serve with a fresh side salad to round out the meal.
