Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large bowl, toss the beef cubes with 1 tbsp olive oil, salt, black pepper, rosemary, and garlic powder until evenly coated.
In a separate bowl, toss the sweet potato cubes and sliced onion with the remaining 2 tbsp olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned beef cubes and sear on all sides until browned, about 5 minutes.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and stir for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sweet potato and onion mixture to the skillet, stirring to combine with the beef.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender and the beef is cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Chef's Tips
- For extra flavor, marinate the beef cubes in the seasoning mixture for 1-2 hours before cooking.
- Cut the sweet potatoes into even-sized pieces to ensure they cook uniformly.
- Add other root vegetables like carrots or parsnips for more variety.
- Garnish with fresh parsley or thyme before serving for a pop of color and freshness.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
