Cooking steak might seem intimidating, but in my opinion it’s one of the easiest dinners I make. Even if you cook your steak well done, you’re still under 15 minutes of cook time!
All you need for this savory steak is butter, minced garlic, and the steak of your choice. No 15 ingredient marinade, no expensive rubs.
The simple flavor of this steak pairs well with a ton of sides. If you’re looking to step up your dinner, these easy oven roasted potatoes are the perfect fit. Dice, season, and throw these in the oven. In 45 minutes you’ve got crispy seasoned potatoes to go with your steak.
Don’t have 45 minutes? No problem. Pair your pan seared garlic butter steak with instant mashed potatoes and 5 minute microwave steamed broccoli and you have a steakhouse dinner faster than you can eat an overpriced appetizer!
On the fence about instant potatoes? I used to be too! Believe me, try these once and you’ll have a hard time going back to putting so much time and effort into traditional mashed potatoes for the same result. Simply get 2 cups of water boiling, remove from heat, and stir these in. SO fast, SO easy, and SO good!
We could argue all day about the right way to cook a steak. You’ve got your die hard medium rare fans and people that won’t touch anything less than well done. However you choose, this pan seared garlic butter steak will taste just as good.
