Method

Steak Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Season the filet mignon or NY strip steak generously with coarse black pepper and kosher salt on all sides.

  2. 2

    Heat the Pan

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

    Peel and chop the russet potatoes into small cubes and boil them in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes.

    Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add butter, milk, garlic powder, and salt. Mash until creamy.
