Easy Beef Steak with Garlic Butter and Potatoes

Ingredients:

  • For the Potatoes:

    • 1.5 lbs baby potatoes, halved or quartered

    • 2 tbsp olive oil

    • 1 tsp garlic powder

    • 1 tsp paprika

    • Salt and pepper to taste

  • For the Beef Chops:

    • 2–4 beef chops (bone-in or boneless)

    • Salt and pepper to season

    • 2 tbsp olive oil

    • 3 tbsp unsalted butter

    • 4 garlic cloves, minced

    • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

  1. Roast the Potatoes:

    • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

    • Toss the potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.

    • Spread the potatoes on a baking sheet.

    • Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy.

  2. Season the Beef Chops:

    • Pat the beef chops dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.

  3. Cook the Beef Chops:

    • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

    • Sear the beef chops for 3–4 minutes per side until browned and cooked to your preferred doneness.

    • Remove the chops from the skillet and set them aside to rest.

  4. Make the Garlic Butter:

    • Reduce the heat to medium and add butter to the skillet.

    • Stir in minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

    • Return the beef chops to the skillet and spoon the garlic butter over them. Let them warm for 1–2 minutes.

  5. Serve:

    • Arrange the roasted potatoes on a plate.

    • Place the beef chops on top or alongside.

    • Drizzle the garlic butter sauce over both the chops and potatoes.

    • Garnish with chopped parsley.

Tips:

  • Use a meat thermometer to check doneness:

    • Medium-rare: 135°F

    • Medium: 145°F

  • For extra crispy potatoes, broil them for 2–3 minutes after roasting.

  • Add a sprig of rosemary or thyme to the garlic butter for extra flavor.
