Steak

Patatas Bravas

Basil Macerated Tomatoes

Sherry Pesto Aioli

Method

Preparing the Steak

  1. 1

    Marinate Skirt Steak

    In a bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the skirt steak and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature.

  2. 2

    Grill the Steak

    Preheat your grill to high heat. Grill the marinated skirt steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Once done, remove from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.

Making Patatas Bravas

  1. 3

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and cut the Yukon Gold potatoes into bite-sized pieces. In a pot, bring salted water to a boil and cook the potatoes for about 10 minutes until fork-tender, then drain.

  2. 4

    Roast the Potatoes

    In a large mixing bowl, toss the boiled potatoes with olive oil, smoked paprika, and salt. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for about 20-25 minutes or until golden and crispy. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Macerating the Tomatoes

  1. 5

    Prepare the Tomatoes

    Halve the cherry tomatoes and place them in a bowl. Add the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, chopped fresh basil, and salt. Toss gently to combine, and let them sit for at least 15 minutes to macerate.

Making the Sherry Pesto Aioli

  1. 6

    Mix the Aioli

    In a bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sherry vinegar, pesto, minced garlic, and salt. Whisk together until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste.
