Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients not provided: Salt, Pepper, Olive Oil

Equipment required: A glass or jar with a heavy base, Baking sheet, non-stick or cast-iron pan, knife, and cutting board


Ingredients:

 

Directions:


Step 1: Preheat

-Place your oven rack in the middle of the oven and set your oven to 450 degrees.


Step 2: Prep your ingredients

While the oven gets hot, prepare your ingredients.

-Season both sides of your steak with salt and pepper

-Toss the pee wee potatoes with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and spread out evenly on a sheet pan.


Pro-tip: Use a sheet pan that is large enough to allow space between all of the potatoes and cover it with aluminum foil for easier clean up!


Step 4: Cook the pee wee potatoes

Once the oven is hot, cook the potatoes for 20 minutes.

While the potatoes cook, prepare the asparagus.


Step 5: Prepare the asparagus

Break or cut the bottom 1-2 inches of asparagus and discard. Drizzle olive oil over the asparagus. Season with salt and pepper and set aside until ready to cook. The asparagus will cook after the potatoes cook for 20 minutes.


Step 6: Prepare to cook the steak

When the 20 minute timer goes off for the potatoes, place the non-stick or cast-iron pan over medium high heat, coat the bottom of the pan with olive oil and allow to get hot.


Step 7: Finishing the vegetables

While your pan heats up, take the potatoes out of the oven, carefully press down on each potato to flatten them with the heavy bottom of a glass or jar. Push the potatoes over to one side of the pan, drizzle a small amount of olive oil over the flattened potatoes and put the asparagus on the same pan. Bake both vegetables together in the 450 degree oven for an additional 8 minutes. Continue on to cook the steak, while the vegetables finish cooking.


Step 8: Cook the steak

When the pan is hot, place the seasoned steak in the pan and cook to your desired doneness based off of the chart below. When done cooking, remove the steaks from the burner, transfer them to a plate, and allow the steaks to rest until you are ready to serve. Continue on to cook the vegetables.


Please note: Steak thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner steak, we recommend checking for

doneness sooner.


Rare - 3 minutes on each side

Medium Rare - 3.5 minutes on each side

Medium - 4 minutes on each side

Medium Well - 4.5 minutes on each side

Well done - 5 minutes on each side


Step 9: Slicing the steak

Allow the steak to rest for 3-5 minutes before slicing. Spread the romesco sauce along the bottom of the plate and place the steak and vegetables above the sauce. Squeeze the juice of half a lemon over the potatoes and asparagus, and sprinkle the fresh herbs over everything.


Enjoy!
