Why You’ll Love Steak Bites with Horseradish Sauce

FAGE sour cream is my favorite way to level up any dish, including these Steak Bites.

Pro Tip: What Is Horseradish Anyway?

Horseradish is a root vegetable, kind of like a spicy radish. When you grate it or mix it into sauce, it releases that sharp, sinus-clearing heat. But it’s not “burn your mouth” spicy like a chili pepper. It’s bright, punchy, and perfect with rich meat because it cuts through fat and brings everything back into balance. That’s why it’s such a classic pairing with steak and prime rib.

Potato Prep

Start by parboiling your potatoes. Set a Dutch oven over the fire or on the stove and bring water to a boil. Add a little baking soda, then drop in the potatoes. Boil them for about 10–15 minutes, just until a fork slides in with a little resistance.

Drain the potatoes and let them cool for about 5 minutes so the steam can escape.

Homemade Horseradish Sauce

Into a small bowl, add the FAGE sour cream, prepared horseradish, white vinegar or lemon juice, chili oil, chopped parsley or fresh chives, and Worcestershire sauce to a small bowl. Stir until everything is fully combined and smooth.

These images show the making of the homemade horseradish sauce.

Taste and adjust as needed. Add more horseradish if you want it spicier, a little more vinegar or lemon juice if you want it brighter, or a splash of soy sauce for an umami twist. 

Cover and set the horseradish cream sauce aside while you cook the steak and potatoes so the flavors have time to come together.

Steak Time

Slice your steaks into about 1½-inch cubes on a cutting board. Let the meat sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes, then toss with oil, kosher salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

The raw steak cubes on the left; the steak cooks on the right.

Build a medium-high heat fire with Cowboy Charcoal and set a cast iron skillet over the heat. Add a little oil and let the pan get hot.

Add your steak bites to the hot skillet and let them cook for about 1½ minutes per side until they get a nice crust. Once they look good, pull them off and keep them warm for a minute.

The meat cooks to perfection in the cast iron skillet.

Now toss the potatoes into the same pan and let them cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring now and then, until they’re browned and crispy on the outside. When the potatoes are ready, slide the steak back into the skillet and spread everything out a bit. Make a few little pockets in the pan, crack the eggs right into those spots, and cook them however you like: runny, jammy, or fully set.

it’s ready!

Spoon the steak, potatoes, and eggs onto a serving plate, or you can serve directly from the cast iron. Drizzle a little extra butter over the top if you want. Finish with chopped green onions or fresh chives. Serve the creamy horseradish sauce on the side and let everyone dip as they go.

The meat, potato, and egg skillet dish finishes up on the hot grill.

What to Serve with Steak Bites

This is one of those meals that pretty much stands on its own, given that it’s a steak, eggs, and potatoes bite in one. If you want to round it out, add some toast or grilled bread to soak up the horseradish sauce, maybe a little fresh fruit or a simple side salad to lighten things up, and call it good.

And if you’re leaning into brunch mode, pour some mimosas, make a pot of coffee, and enjoy this as a laid-back weekend spread that feels way more special than it actually is.

Storage & Leftovers

If you have any leftover steak bites, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet or air fryer so the steak doesn’t overcook. They’re also great cold the next day tucked into a wrap or pita pocket.

FAQs for Steak Bites

Can I make this in the air fryer?

You can, but you won’t get the same crust as cooking in a hot pan over charcoal. If you do use the air fryer, cook in batches so the steak still browns.

Can I swap sour cream for Greek yogurt?

You can use creamy Greek yogurt, but the sauce won’t be quite as rich. FAGE gives you the best results here.

​Is this recipe flexible? 

I’d say so. You can use New York steak, ribeye steak, sirloin steak, beef tenderloin, or even tender filet mignon if you want to go all out. Cut it into cubes, season it well, and let the high heat do the rest. It’s a great option for a weeknight dinner, but it’s also a big hit for a weekend brunch spread when you want something hearty.
