Ingredients
- Steak (ribeye, sirloin, or filet mignon): 1 steak per person, your choice of cut for optimal tenderness and flavor.
- Potatoes (for fries): 2 medium potatoes per person, cut into thin strips for the perfect crispy fries.
- Olive Oil: 2 tablespoons, for searing the steak and frying the fries.
- Salt: To taste, for seasoning the steak and fries.
- Pepper: To taste, for seasoning the steak and fries.
- Fresh Parsley (optional): 1 tablespoon, chopped, for garnishing.
Instructions
- Preheat Your Equipment: Preheat your skillet to medium-high heat. Ensure your oil is hot before adding the steak.
- Combine Ingredients: Season the steak generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in the skillet and allow it to get very hot before adding the steak.
- Assemble the Dish: Place the steak in the hot skillet, cooking it for 3-4 minutes per side, depending on thickness and desired doneness.
- Cook to Perfection: While the steak is resting, fry the fries in hot oil until golden brown and crispy, about 4-6 minutes. Drain them on paper towels.
- Finishing Touches: Sprinkle the fries with salt and finely chopped parsley.
- Serve and Enjoy: Plate the steak and fries together. Serve with your favorite sauce or just enjoy it as is.
