🍽️ Step-by-Step Cooking Instructions

1. Season for Success

Rub your steaks generously with salt, pepper, and parsley. Pro Tip: Let your steaks sit at room temperature for 20 minutes before cooking to ensure an even cook and a better crust.

2. Master the Mash

Boil the peeled potatoes in salted water until fork-tender. Drain and mash immediately with butter and milk. Fold in the peas at the end to keep them vibrant. This is the ultimate easy homemade mash that pairs perfectly with steak juices.

3. The Perfect Sear

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steaks for 3–4 minutes per side (for medium-rare). In the final 2 minutes, drop in the butter and minced garlic. Use a spoon to baste the garlic butter over the meat—this technique is the secret to a juicy steak dinner.

4. Sauté the Vibrant Veggies

In a separate pan (or the same one after resting the meat), sauté the broccoli, carrots, asparagus, and green beans. Add garlic and butter during the last 3 minutes to keep the veggies crisp-tender rather than mushy.

5. Plate and Enjoy

Rest your steak for 5 minutes before slicing to lock in the juices. Serve alongside a mountain of creamy mash and your colorful veggie medley.
