1
Peeling the Yucca
Using a sharp knife, carefully peel the yucca root to remove the tough outer skin. Cut the yucca into 2-inch pieces.
2
Cooking the Yucca
In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 tsp of salt and the yucca pieces. Cook for about 20-25 minutes, or until the yucca is tender when pierced with a fork. Drain and set aside.

3
Preparing the Steak
Pat the sirloin steak dry with paper towels. Season both sides with 1 tsp of salt and 0.5 tsp of black pepper.
4
Searing the Steak
In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium-high heat. Once the butter is foamy, add the sirloin steak. Sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired doneness.
5
Resting the Steak
Once cooked, remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

6
Serving the Dish
Slice the rested sirloin steak against the grain. Serve alongside the cooked yucca. Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons of melted butter over the yucca and steak for added flavor.
