Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1.25 lbs sirloin steak cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1.5 cups Yukon Gold potatoes peeled and diced into small cubes
  • 1 small zucchini cut into half-moons
  • 1 medium yellow onion diced
  • 1 small jalapeño finely chopped, seeds removed
  • 1 red bell pepper diced
  • 1 yellow bell pepper diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil divided
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp chipotle powder
  • 1 tsp kosher salt divided
  • 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro chopped
  • 1 n/a lime wedges for serving

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Set up your Blackstone griddle and preheat it to a medium-high temperature, around 375–400°F.
  • In a pot of salted water, boil the diced potatoes for about 5 minutes. Drain the potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry with a clean towel to remove excess moisture.
  • While the potatoes are boiling, season the steak pieces with half of the salt and the black pepper, making sure every piece is evenly coated.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the griddle, then arrange the seasoned steak in a single layer for searing. Cook the steak for 2–3 minutes, flipping halfway through, until it has a nice brown crust. Once seared, move the steak to the cooler side of the griddle or onto a plate.
  • Pour the remaining olive oil onto the griddle and toss in the diced onion and bell peppers. Sauté the vegetables for about 3 minutes until they soften slightly.
  • Introduce the zucchini and jalapeño to the pan, cooking them for an additional 3 minutes. Add the minced garlic just 30 seconds before removing the vegetables from heat to keep their flavor vibrant.
  • Push the sautéed vegetables to the side and add the parboiled potatoes onto the griddle in a flat layer. Let them cook undisturbed for about 4 minutes or until they develop a crispy, golden exterior.
  • Flip the potatoes, then sprinkle them with smoked paprika, chipotle powder, and the remaining salt. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to blend the flavors.
  • Combine the Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, and 1 tablespoon of water in a small bowl. Pour this mixture over the potatoes and veggies, tossing everything together to ensure a good coating.
  • Return the steak along with any juices back to the griddle, mixing it in with the vegetables. Stir-fry for another minute or two until the steak reaches your desired doneness.
  • Garnish the dish with fresh cilantro and serve immediately with lime wedges for a zesty kick.
