Ingredients
- 2 ribeye steaks
- 4 medium potatoes, diced
- 1 lb asparagus, trimmed
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Remove steaks from refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking to allow them to reach room temperature, ensuring even cooking.
- Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for the potatoes.
- Dice potatoes into 1-inch cubes, toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread evenly on prepared baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes, turning once halfway through until golden and crispy.
- Pat steaks dry with paper towels. Season generously on both sides with salt and black pepper.
- Heat a cast-iron skillet over high heat. Add remaining olive oil and when it's shimmering, carefully place steaks in the pan.
- For medium-rare, cook steaks 4-5 minutes per side, using tongs to flip. Use a meat thermometer to check internal temperature (130-135°F for medium-rare).
- During the last 5 minutes of potato cooking, add trimmed asparagus to the baking sheet, drizzle with a little olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
- Let steaks rest on a cutting board for 5-7 minutes after cooking to allow juices to redistribute.
- Slice steaks against the grain and plate with roasted potatoes and asparagus.
- Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and serve immediately.
Tips
- Room Temperature Steaks: Always take your steaks out of the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking. This step ensures they cook evenly and achieve that perfect sear.
- High-Temperature Roasting: Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C) for roasting the potatoes. This high temperature is key to achieving that irresistible crispy texture.
- Proper Seasoning: Don’t be shy with the salt and pepper! Generously season both the steaks and vegetables to enhance their natural flavors.
- Use a Meat Thermometer: To achieve the perfect doneness, especially for medium-rare steaks, invest in a meat thermometer. Aim for an internal temperature of 130-135°F.
- Resting is Key: After cooking, let your steaks rest for 5-7 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring each slice is juicy and flavorful.
- Timing for Asparagus: Add the asparagus to the baking sheet during the last 5 minutes of the potatoes’ cooking time. This will keep them tender yet crisp without overcooking.
- Presentation Matters: For an appealing presentation, slice the steaks against the grain and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
