Ingredients
  

For the Steak
  • 2 ribeye steaks or your favorite cut
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter for the steaks
For the Crispy Potatoes
  • 1 kg potatoes Yukon gold or similar
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp fresh rosemary optional
  • fresh parsley for garnish

Equipment

  • Skillet
  • Oven
  • Baking Sheet

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 425 °F (220 °C). Cut potatoes into ½-inch pieces and toss in olive oil, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and rosemary. Spread evenly on a baking sheet.
  2. Roast the potatoes for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crisp.
  3. Bring steaks to room temperature for 20 minutes. Pat dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
  4. Heat a heavy skillet over high heat. Add a splash of oil and sear steaks for 3–4 minutes per side for medium-rare, adjusting for thickness.
  5. During the last minute of cooking, add butter to the skillet and spoon over steaks.
  6. Remove steaks and let rest for 5 minutes. Toss the roasted potatoes again to enhance crispiness.
  7. Slice steak against the grain, plate with potatoes, garnish with parsley, and serve.

Notes

For extra flavor, add garlic or herbs to the pan with the butter. Leftovers are perfect for salads or sandwiches. Avoid crowding the pan to keep potatoes crispy.
