Method
 

How to Make Parmesan Crusted Steak and Potato
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures even cooking and helps achieve that perfect golden crust on your potatoes and steak.
  2. Wash and cut the Yukon Gold potatoes into wedges. Toss them in a mixing bowl with olive oil, salt, pepper, and fresh herbs for flavor. Spread them on a baking sheet in a single layer.
  3. Roast the potatoes for 25-30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Give them a gentle stir halfway through to help achieve an even bake.
  4. Season the ribeye steak generously with salt, pepper, minced garlic, and a drizzle of olive oil. This will enhance the steak’s flavor while keeping it juicy and tender.
  5. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over one side of the steak, creating a delicious cheesy crust that will melt and crisp up beautifully during cooking.
  6. Sear the steak in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat for about 3-4 minutes per side. Aim for a nice brown crust, which adds wonderful flavor to the dish.
  7. Transfer the skillet to the oven alongside the roasting potatoes and let it cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until the steak reaches your desired doneness—medium-rare is often ideal!

Notes

For the Parmesan Crusted Steak and Potato, ensure your steak is at room temperature before cooking to promote even searing. A common mistake is overcrowding the baking sheet with potatoes; giving them space allows for a crispier texture. When adding Parmesan cheese to the steak, press it gently into the meat for better adhesion during cooking. Always use a meat thermometer to check internal temperature, aiming for 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare to avoid overcooking the steak.
