Prepare the potatoes: Place the peeled and chopped potatoes into a large pot. Cover with cold water by about 1 inch and add 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium and simmer until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.

Cook the steak: While the potatoes are cooking, heat a large cast iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat until hot. Add the seasoned steak bites in a single layer, working in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding. Sear for 2-3 minutes per side until browned and cooked to your desired doneness. Remove the seared steak bites from the skillet and set aside in a clean dish.

Cook the mushrooms and garlic butter sauce: Reduce the heat to medium. Add the butter to the same skillet. Once melted and foamy, add the sliced mushrooms and minced garlic. Sprinkle with dried Italian herbs. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are softened and lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes.

Finish the mashed potatoes: Once the potatoes are tender, drain them thoroughly and return them to the empty pot. Add the warm milk, 2 tablespoons of butter, and a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper. Mash with a potato masher until creamy and smooth. Stir in the chopped green onions.

Combine steak and mushrooms: Return the cooked steak bites to the skillet with the sautéed mushrooms and garlic butter sauce. Stir gently to combine and coat the steak with the sauce. Keep warm over low heat.

Cook the broccolini: While the steak and mushrooms are warming, steam the broccolini. You can do this in a steamer basket over boiling water or in a microwave-safe dish with a splash of water, covered, until tender-crisp, about 4-6 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt.

Serve: Divide the creamy mashed potatoes among serving plates. Top with a generous portion of the garlic butter herb steak bites and mushrooms. Add a side of steamed broccolini. Drizzle any remaining garlic butter sauce from the skillet over the steak and mushrooms. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
