I used a ribeye steak- it was about .75 lbs so I am eating half tonight and slicing the rest to use in a steak salad. I also used baby red potatoes that i cut in forths for my potatoes. They roast really nicely in the oven and have a great color to them. The potatoes take some time to roast (around 40-45 minutes) so give yourself plenty of time to make this dish.
Steak and Potatoes
Bad Presentation, Great Meal |
-.75 pounds of beef. I used ribeye because it was cheap at the grocery store but sirloin steak, NEw York Strip, or filet would be wonderful as well. Come on its beef.
-1 small bag of baby red potatoes
-Olive Oil
-like 10 cloves of Garlic, peeled.
- 1/2 teaspoon of Rosemary, Thyme, Dried Oregano, Salt Pepper,
Directions
- Preheat oven to 450F. While oven is heating put potatoes and garlic cloves in a pyrex baking dish. Coat potatoes generously in Olive oil and add salt, pepper, Rosemary, thyme and dried oregano. Feel free to adjust amounts of herbs according to taste. I love rosemary so I pumped up the Rosemary. Place dish in oven.
- About 20 minutes before potatoes are done prepare your steak. Simply Salt and Pepper GENEROUSLY on both sides. HEat a non-stick pan to medium high heat. Use a bit of canola oil or non-stick spray in the pan
- Cook steak until desired temperature, flipping once at the half way point. For medium rare try 6-8 minutes. Medium 8-10, medium well 10-12.
- Remove steak and place on cutting board. Let it sit for 5 minutes.
- Once potatoes are done (and steak has finished resting) take them out of the oven and plate. Slice your steak, saving half for lunch tomorrow. Place on plate.
- Eat like a beast.
