Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation of Steak

  1. 1

    Season the Steak

    Pat the steak dry with a paper towel. Rub the olive oil all over the steak, then season both sides with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

  2. 2

    Heat the Pan

    Heat a skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat. Allow it to get hot before adding the steak.

  3. 3

    Cook the Steak

    Once the pan is hot, place the steak in the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes on one side until browned, then flip and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes for medium-rare (adjust time for desired doneness).

  4. 4

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steak from the pan and place it on a cutting board. Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

  5. 5

    Slice the Steak

    After resting, slice the steak against the grain into thin strips.

Preparation of Sides (Optional)

  1. 6

    Prepare Vegetable Medley

    In a separate pot, bring water to a boil. Add the vegetable medley and cook for 4-5 minutes until tender. Drain and set aside.

  2. 7

    Prepare Mashed Potatoes

    If using pre-made or instant mashed potatoes, follow the package instructions. For homemade, boil peeled potatoes until soft, then mash with butter and a splash of milk.

Plating

  1. 8

    Plate the Dish

    On a plate, arrange the sliced steak next to the vegetable medley and a scoop of mashed potatoes. Serve hot.
