Preparing a Garlic Herb Potatoes and Steak Skillet is a delicious and flavorful meal that combines tender steak and seasoned potatoes. Here’s a step-by-step recipe to guide you through the process:
Ingredients:
For the Steak:
- 1 lb (450g) sirloin steak or your preferred cut
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves (or 1 teaspoon dried thyme)
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary leaves (or 1 teaspoon dried rosemary)
For the Potatoes:
- 1 lb (450g) baby potatoes (red or Yukon gold), halved or quartered if large
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves (or 1 teaspoon dried thyme)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Prepare the Potatoes:
- In a large mixing bowl, toss the halved or quartered baby potatoes with olive oil, minced garlic, fresh thyme, salt, and pepper.
- Spread the seasoned potatoes on a large, oven-safe skillet or baking sheet.
- Roast the Potatoes:
- Place the skillet or baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the potatoes for about 20-25 minutes or until they are tender and golden brown. Stir them occasionally to ensure even cooking.
- Prepare the Steak:
- While the potatoes are roasting, season the steak with salt and pepper on both sides.
- In another skillet or a grill pan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat.
- Add the minced garlic, fresh thyme, and rosemary to the skillet, and sauté for about a minute until fragrant.
- Cook the Steak:
- Place the seasoned steak in the skillet and cook for about 3-5 minutes per side, depending on your desired level of doneness (medium-rare, medium, etc.). Cooking times may vary based on the thickness of the steak and your stove’s heat.
- Rest the Steak:
- Once the steak is cooked to your preference, remove it from the skillet and let it rest on a cutting board for a few minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute and keep the steak tender.
- Assemble the Dish:
- Once the potatoes are roasted and the steak has rested, slice the steak into thin strips.
- Arrange the sliced steak over the roasted garlic herb potatoes on the skillet.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- You can garnish the dish with additional fresh herbs, if desired.
- Serve your delicious Garlic Herb Potatoes and Steak Skillet as a complete meal, or you can add a side of salad or vegetables for a well-rounded dinner.
