- 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons fresh parsley, finely chopped
For the steak:
- 4 (12-ounce) ribeye steaks
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- Olive oil
For the potatoes:
- 4 medium potatoes, unpeeled
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 12 ounces aged cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1/3 cup dried bread crumbs
Instructions
To prepare the herbed butter:
- In a small bowl, mix the butter, garlic, lemon juice and parsley. Roll the butter into a log shape. Wrap the butter in a sheet of wax paper.
- Refrigerate until cool throughout, at least 1 hour.
To prepare the steaks:
- Sprinkle the steaks with the salt and pepper. Brush each steak with olive oil.
- Preheat a cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Immediately reduce heat to low. Sear steaks for 3-5 minutes per side.
- Continue to cook steaks over very low heat until reaching desired level of doneness.
- Transfer cooked steaks to a cutting board, and allow to rest for 10 minutes.
- Serve with a dollop of herbed butter.
To prepare the potatoes:
- In a large saucepan, cover potatoes with water. Bring water to a boil. Reduce heat. Cover potatoes and cook until tender, about 40 minutes. Drain potatoes, and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Peel potatoes. Coarsely shred potatoes. In a saucepan over medium heat, heat the milk, cream, salt, mustard and pepper until bubbles form at the sides of the mixture. Stir in shredded potatoes.
- Lightly grease an 8×8-inch baking dish. Transfer shredded potato mix to the prepared dish. Sprinkle cheddar cheese and bread crumbs over the potatoes.
- Bake the potatoes until cheese topping is browned, about 45 minutes.
