Steak

Café de Paris Butter

Potato Croquettes

Asparagus

Method

Steak Preparation

  1. 1

    Season the Steak

    Pat the KC strip steak dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Sear the Steak

    Heat olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over high heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the steak. Sear for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness.

  3. 3

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Café de Paris Butter Preparation

  1. 4

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a medium bowl, combine softened butter, parsley, chives, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, lemon juice, chopped capers, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix until well combined.

  2. 5

    Shape the Butter

    Transfer the mixture onto a piece of parchment paper. Roll into a log shape, twist the ends, and refrigerate until firm.

Potato Croquettes Preparation

  1. 6

    Prepare the Mashed Potatoes

    In a large bowl, mix the mashed potatoes, egg, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

  2. 7

    Form the Croquettes

    Take a small amount of the mixture and shape it into oval or round balls. Coat each ball in breadcrumbs.

  3. 8

    Fry the Croquettes

    Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry the croquettes in batches until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.

Asparagus Preparation

  1. 9

    Prepare the Asparagus

    Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and rinse under cold water.

  2. 10

    Season and Roast

    Toss the asparagus with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes, until tender.
