Juicy buttery steak and crispy potatoes done in under 30 minutes is the perfect midweek steak dinner!
I love to surprise Tom with a steak and potatoes dinner during the week randomly! First of all steak makes him smile because its one of his favorite foods. Secondly its fun to be fancy in our pj’s, eating a steak dinner mid week on the couch. Its my version of culinary self care! The only thing is we have to keep it a secret how easy this recipe is from Tom lol! He does not cook at all and thinks this takes a while to make. It actually is one of my easiest recipe! Boil potatoes for 11 minutes, smash, and cook on sheet tray 4 minutes per side.
We all sometimes wait for the big stuff to celebrate and forget to live in the now! Do not forget to find moments to reconnect with the now and celebrate the moment. This steak dinner is a way for me and Tom to randomly just have fun. We always try to find things to do that make us forget all the stuff going on and just enjoy! On a warm Sunday we will walk to Highline, date night Fridays at Cookshop, and random weekday eating dinner in front of the TV watching Bravo.
What are somethings you do to reconnect with the now? Who would you make this steak dinner for to tell them they are awesome? Sending you fun happy vibes to live life to the fullest and cook awesome meals fast. Cheers to recipes that celebrate you!
Hope you love this recipe as much as me and Tom do! Happy cooking!
Recipe Hack / Cooking Tips:
- Buy small potatoes: The smaller the potato the faster it cooks. This make dinner happen faster and also makes sure potato is fully cooked.
- Season the sheet tray: Spread oil, salt and pepper on bottom of tray. This will help make sure the food that touches sheet pan is properly seasoned.
- Vegan or Vegetarian? Just use firm tofu in place of the steak and rub the chili powder all over tofu. Also use vegetable stock for the potatoes.
