If you’re in the mood for steak but not exactly in the mood for those eye-watering steakhouse prices, the obvious solution is to make your own steak dinner. This recipe isn’t complicated in the slightest and you won’t need that many ingredients for a successful result.
New York strip steak or sirloin is a great pick for making this, along with baby golden potatoes and onions. You will also need oil and butter for sauteing along with oregano, thyme and rosemary, plus a little garlic, to finish the dish.
The keys to success include allowing the steak to reach room temperature, since a chilled steak toughens up when you cook it, and using the right type of potatoes. You will need a waxy kind and not a starchy kind. Waxy, thin-skinned potatoes hold their shape when sauteed, while the thicker-skinned creamy or starchy ones just fall apart.
