Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb sirloin steak (cut into bite-sized pieces)
- 1 lb baby potatoes (halved)
- 3 tablespoons butter (melted)
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped)
Instructions
- Heat grill or oven to 400F (200C), preparing for a sizzling culinary experience.
- Create a flavor-packed marinade by whisking melted butter with aromatic garlic, zesty seasonings including salt, pepper, paprika, oregano, and fiery red pepper flakes.
- Gently fold steak chunks and diced potatoes into the seasoned butter mixture, ensuring each morsel is thoroughly coated with the robust blend of spices.
- Lay out four generously sized aluminum foil sheets, ready to transform into individual flavor-packed parcels.
- Distribute the seasoned steak and potato mixture evenly across the foil sheets, spreading ingredients in a single layer for optimal cooking.
- Drizzle a touch of olive oil over each packet to enhance moisture and richness.
- Carefully crimp and fold the foil edges, creating tightly sealed packets that will trap steam and intensify flavors.
- Position packets on grill grates or oven rack, allowing direct heat to work its magic for 20-25 minutes.
- Verify potatoes are fork-tender and steak reaches preferred doneness, adjusting cooking time if necessary.
- Delicately open packets, releasing a burst of aromatic steam, and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a vibrant finishing touch.
- Serve immediately while piping hot, presenting a rustic and flavorful meal directly from the foil.
Notes
- Make ahead packets can be prepared 24 hours in advance and stored refrigerated, enhancing meal prep convenience.
- Use lower-fat butter alternatives or olive oil for healthier version without compromising rich flavor profile.
- Choose lean cuts like sirloin or flank steak to reduce overall fat content while maintaining tender meat texture.
- Customize spice levels by adjusting red pepper flakes or replacing with smoked paprika for milder heat experience.
