Here’s one of my recipes from this week’s meal plan. Adapted from Real Simple magazine. I’m making two servings with this recipe since I live alone, one for dinner tonight and one for lunch tomorrow.
Ingredients:
2 russet potatoes cut into 1 inch chunks
1 shallot, sliced
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon chili powder
salt and pepper
1 teaspoon thyme
1 piece of steak (your choice of cut, I’m using top sirlon which was $3.99/lb at Costco)
1 lemon
Heat oven to 425F. Mix the potatoes, scallion, oil, chili powder, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and thyme in a medium bowl. Transfer to a roasting pan and cook, stirring once, until crisp and golden brown, about 40 minutes. Remove the potatoes from oven and transfer to individual plates (or reusable food storage containers). Switch the oven to broiler mode. Season the steak with salt and pepper. Put on the same roasting pan you used for the potatoes. Broil the steak to the desired doneness, top sirlion takes about 10 minutes per side for medium-rare which is the way I like it. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes (this will make it so the juices don’t run out when you cut it). Cut the steak in half (since we’re doing 2 servings). Serve with potatoes and lemon wedges.
