Garlic Steak and Potato Foil Packets
Tender steak and seasoned potatoes are cooked together in a foil packet with a flavorful garlic butter sauce. Ideal for grilling or baking, these foil packets are a hassle-free, delicious meal!
Ingredients:
- 1 lb sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized cubes
- 1 lb baby potatoes, quartered (or regular potatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces)
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp dried rosemary
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish, optional)
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced (optional, for extra flavor and color)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Foil Packets:
- Cut four large pieces of aluminum foil, about 12×12 inches each.
- Season the Ingredients:
- In a large bowl, combine the cubed steak, quartered potatoes, and red bell pepper (if using).
- In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, minced garlic, dried thyme, dried rosemary, paprika, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Pour the garlic butter mixture over the steak and potatoes and toss everything together until well-coated.
- Assemble the Packets:
- Divide the steak and potato mixture evenly among the four pieces of foil.
- Fold the edges of each piece of foil to create a sealed packet, making sure to crimp the edges tightly so that the steam stays inside.
- Cook the Packets:
- Grilling: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Place the foil packets on the grill and cook for 25-30 minutes, flipping occasionally, until the potatoes are tender and the steak is cooked to your desired level of doneness.
- Baking: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the foil packets on a baking sheet and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the steak is cooked through.
- Serve:
- Carefully open the foil packets, as they will be hot and steam will escape. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired.
