Steak and Frites Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Frites

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Cut the potatoes into thin strips to resemble fries. Toss the potato strips with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Spread them out on a baking sheet in a single layer.

  2. 2

    Bake the Frites

    Bake the fries in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Shallot Butter

    While the frites are baking, finely chop the shallots. In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook until softened and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

  4. 4

    Grill the Steak

    Season the flat iron steak with salt and black pepper on both sides. Preheat a grill or grill pan over high heat. Grill the steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness.

  5. 5

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for about 5 minutes before slicing.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the sliced steak on a plate with the crispy frites on the side. Drizzle the roasted shallot butter over the steak and garnish with fresh parsley.
