Ingredients
- 2 ButcherBox top sirloin steaks
- 2 Russet potatoes
- 1/4 cup Cup grapeseed oil
- kosher salt to taste
- shallot
- bunch chives
- 3 sprigs thyme
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- clove garlic
- black pepper to taste
For Sauce Diane
- 2 tbsp Scotch (Bruichladdich The Classic Laddie)
- 1/2 cup cream
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
Preparation
- 15 minutes before cooking, remove the steak from its packaging and set it on a paper towel-lined plate. Set aside at room temperature to temper.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F.
- Wash and cut the potato into quarters lengthwise, then slice each quarter to make 3 steak fries.
- Transfer to a mixing bowl along with half of the oil and a pinch of salt. Toss to coat.
- Spray the lined sheet trays with pan spray. Line the steak fries on the trays, leaving space between each fry.
- Transfer to the oven to bake, rotating every 15 minutes, until cooked through and crispy, about 45 minutes in total.
- Peel and finely mince the shallot. Slice the chives.
How to Cook
- Season the steak with salt.
- Heat a large saute pan over high heat. Add the remaining oil to the preheated pan.
- Just before the oil begins smoking, add the steaks and sear over high heat, flipping every 30 seconds or so until cooked to your desired doneness, about 2-3 minutes for a solid medium-rare.
- Add the butter. Smash the garlic clove and add it to the pan, along with the thyme. Use a large metal spoon to baste.
- Transfer the steaks to a cutting board to rest, topped with the garlic and thyme.
- Return the pan to medium-high heat. Add the minced shallot and lightly saute. Season with a pinch of salt.
- Add the Scotch and flambé!!
- Add the Sauce Diane and bring to a boil. Turn the heat off and whisk in the sliced chives. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and black pepper.
- Remove the steak fries from the oven.
- Carve the steaks and plate them alongside a pile of frites, topped with that delicious Sauce Diane. Dig in!!!
