Marinate the Steak
In a large bowl, combine the steak strips with soy sauce, olive oil, freshly cracked pepper, and hot sauce. Toss to coat evenly, then set aside to marinate while you prepare the potatoes.

Sear the Potatoes
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter. Once the butter is melted and sizzling, add the quartered baby potatoes in a single layer. Cook for 4 minutes without stirring to get a golden crust, then stir and cook for another 4–5 minutes until tender and browned. Transfer potatoes to a plate and set aside.

Build the Garlic Butter Base
In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter along with the minced garlic, red chili flakes (if using), and chopped fresh herbs. Stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

Cook the Steak
Lay the marinated steak strips in a single layer in the skillet. Reserve the marinade for later. Sear the steak for 1 minute per side, or until browned and cooked to your desired doneness.

Combine and Finish
If desired, pour in the reserved marinade and cook for an additional minute to intensify flavor. Return the sautéed potatoes to the skillet, tossing everything together until heated through and well coated in the garlic butter.

Serve and Garnish
Remove from heat and serve immediately. Garnish with extra crushed red pepper, fresh herbs, and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese over the potatoes, if desired. Enjoy warm!
