Grilled Steak with Garlic Roasted Potatoes
There’s something timeless about steak and potatoes. It’s hearty, familiar, and always feels like a proper meal. This Grilled Steak with Garlic Roasted Potatoes brings all that comfort to the table with golden, crisp-edged potatoes and juicy slices of steak cooked just the way you like them.
As the potatoes roast, the kitchen fills with the cozy smell of garlic, herbs, and smoky paprika. Then the steak hits the hot grill, sizzling until it’s beautifully seared on the outside and tender inside. It’s simple, satisfying, and perfect for weekends, date nights, or any evening when you want dinner to feel a little extra special.
Ingredients
- 2 sirloin or ribeye steaks
- 1 1/2 pounds baby potatoes, quartered
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary or thyme
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
- Steak sauce or pan juices, for serving
Instructions
1. Prepare the potatoes
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Place the quartered baby potatoes in a large bowl. Add the olive oil, minced garlic, smoked paprika, rosemary or thyme, salt, and black pepper. Toss until every piece is coated.
2. Roast until golden
Spread the potatoes on a baking sheet in a single layer.
Roast for 30–35 minutes, turning them halfway through, until they’re tender inside and golden around the edges. They should smell garlicky, buttery, and wonderfully savory.
3. Season the steak
While the potatoes roast, pat the steaks dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.
4. Grill the steak
Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Cook the steaks for 4–5 minutes per side, or until they reach your preferred doneness. You’re looking for a deep sear outside and juicy tenderness inside.
5. Let it rest and slice
Transfer the steaks to a cutting board and let them rest for 5–7 minutes. This helps the juices settle back into the meat.
Slice against the grain for the most tender bites.
6. Serve everything together
Plate the sliced steak with the hot garlic roasted potatoes. Drizzle with pan juices or your favorite steak sauce, then finish with fresh parsley.
Presentation
Serve the steak slightly overlapping on the plate with the roasted potatoes tucked beside it. Spoon a little pan juice over the steak so it glistens, then sprinkle parsley over both the meat and potatoes for a fresh pop of color.
For a cozy steakhouse-style plate, add a small dish of steak sauce, a lemon wedge, or a simple green salad on the side. A pat of butter melting over the warm steak also makes it feel extra special.
