Instructions
1. Roast the Potatoes
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C)
- Toss potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper
- Spread on a baking sheet in a single layer
- Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and tender
- Optional: sprinkle fresh rosemary for extra flavor
2. Cook the Steak
- Season steaks with salt and pepper
- Heat olive oil or butter in a skillet over medium-high heat
- Cook steaks 3–5 minutes per side (depending on thickness and desired doneness)
- Remove steaks and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing
3. Make the Mushroom Sauce
- In the same skillet, add a bit more butter or oil if needed
- Sauté shallots/onions for 1–2 minutes, then add garlic
- Add mushrooms and cook until browned (~5–6 minutes)
- Pour in beef broth, scraping up browned bits from the pan
- Stir in heavy cream and Dijon mustard
- Simmer 3–5 minutes until thickened, season with salt, pepper, and thyme
4. Cook the Asparagus
- Toss asparagus with olive oil, salt, and pepper
- Roast in the oven 10–12 minutes at 425°F (can roast alongside potatoes)
- Finish with a squeeze of lemon if desired
5. Assemble the Plate
- Slice the steak and place on plates
- Pour creamy mushroom sauce over the steak
- Serve with roasted potatoes and asparagus on the side
Tips for the Best Results
- Steak: Let it come to room temperature before cooking for even cooking
- Mushrooms: Don’t overcrowd the pan; brown them for maximum flavor
- Potatoes: Cut evenly so they roast uniformly
- Asparagus: Roast at high heat to retain crisp-tender texture
If you want, I can also give a fancier version with garlic butter on the steak and truffle oil drizzle for the mushrooms—it turns this into a restaurant-quality dish at home.
