Description

Garlic Steak & Potato Foil Packets are a hearty and flavorful meal combining tender sirloin steak, baby potatoes, and garlic butter, perfect for grilling or baking with minimal cleanup.


Ingredients

  • 1 ½ pounds sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 ½ pounds baby potatoes, halved or quartered
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
  • Aluminum foil

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the steak cubes and potatoes. Drizzle with olive oil and add the minced garlic, dried thyme, dried rosemary, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together until well-coated.
  3. Cut four large pieces of aluminum foil, each about 18 inches long. Divide the steak and potato mixture evenly among the four pieces, placing it in the center of each.
  4. Top each pile with a few cubes of unsalted butter.
  5. Fold the foil over the steak and potatoes to create sealed packets, ensuring no juices can escape.
  6. Place the foil packets on the preheated grill or in the oven. Cook for about 20-25 minutes, turning the packets halfway through if grilling, until the steak is tender and the potatoes are cooked through.
  7. Carefully open the foil packets (watch out for hot steam), garnish with chopped fresh parsley, and serve.

Notes

  • Cut potatoes evenly to ensure they cook at the same rate.
  • Parboil potatoes for 5 minutes to speed up cooking.
  • Assemble packets ahead of time and refrigerate until ready to cook.
  • Add vegetables like bell peppers or mushrooms for variety.
  • Use different cuts of beef like ribeye or strip steak for a richer flavor.
