Instructions
- Make the fries: Preheat the oven to 425°F. Toss the cut potatoes with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, and salt. Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Bake for 30–35 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy and golden.
- Make the tomato salad: In a bowl, combine halved tomatoes, red onion, basil, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss gently and set aside to marinate while you cook the steak.
- Cook the steak: Pat steaks dry with paper towels. Rub both sides with olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill steaks 4–5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
- Serve grilled steak with the fresh tomato salad and hot crispy fries on the side.
Notes
- Swap in sweet potatoes for a healthier fry option.
- You can also cook the steak in a cast iron skillet if a grill isn’t available.
- Add crumbled feta or mozzarella to the salad for extra flavor.
