What You Need:
- Sirloin Steak Tips (I get mine from ButcherBox)
- Balsamic Vinegar
- Coconut Aminos
- Garlic
- Butter Potatoes
- Salt & Pepper
- Dried Rosemary
- Dried Thyme
- Dried Parsley
- Garlic Powder
- Asparagus
- Lemon
- Avocado Oil

I cook everything in my cast iron skillet, but I do it in stages so that I get the best texture and flavor out of each ingredient. It takes more time than just throwing it all in the pan, but it makes a huge difference in the final result. I like to cook the potatoes first while the steak is marinating. They are able to get nice and crispy in a clean pan, then I cook the asparagus and last, I do the steak tips. I am able to season each ingredient this way, which builds flavor as you cook.

Balsamic Steak Tips with Herbed Potatoes & Asparagus
Ingredients
Balsamic Steak
- 2 lbs Sirloin Steak Tips
- 1/2 cup Balsamic Vinegar
- 1/4 cup Coconut Aminos
- 3 cloves Garlic minced
Herbed Potatoes
- 1 lb Butter Potatoes or baby yukon
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1/2 tsp Dried Rosemary
- 1/2 tsp Dried Thyme
- 1/4 tsp Dried Parsley
- 1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1/4 tsp Pepper
Asparagus
- 1 bunch Asparagus
- 1/2 tsp Sea Salt
- 1/4 tsp Pepper
- 1/2 Lemon
- 3 Tbls Avocado Oil divided
Instructions
Balsamic Steak
- Add the steak tips, balsamic vinegar, coconut aminos and garlic into a large bowlStir to combine and cover with cling wrap. Let marinate while you prepare the other ingredients
Herbed Potatoes
- Cut the potatoes in half and add them to a medium saucepan, cover with cold water and add 1 tsp saltBring to a boil and cook until they become just slightly tender (about 10-15 minutes) and then drain Once they are dry, toss them with the salt, dried rosemary, dried thyme, dried parsley, garlic powder and pepper
- Heat 1 Tbls of the oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add in the potatoes in an even layer and let crisp up on one side and then stir to crisp up the other sides (about 5 minutes total)
Asparagus
- Wash and trim the asparagus (I cut about 1/2 inch off the bottom) Carefully wipe the pan and add 1 Tbls of the oil and keep heat at mediumAdd in the asparagus and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Squeeze lemon over it, stir and remove from the pan
- Carefully wipe out the pan again (I use a paper towel) and then add in the remaining 1 Tbls of oil. Turn heat to medium/highUse a slotted spoon to take the steak bites out of the marinade and add to the pan in an even layer. You might have to do this in batches, because you don't want to overcrowd the panCook the steak bites for 2 minutes on one side and then flip for another 1-2 minutes. They should get nice and browned and caramelized, but you don't want to overcook them. Add a pinch of salt and pepper (about 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper) to taste and remove from the pan
- Serve with the crispy potatoes and asparagus
