Bachelor’s Banquet
Not too long ago, Valentine’s Day came around and many single folks may have been feeling a little lonely. It’s not hard to see why thanks to an overinflated holiday that glorifies romance. No matter, for we shall rejoice in our freedoms with a meal featuring the symbol of self-indulgence: the steak.Bachelor’s Banquet
- Top Round Steak
- 3 to 4 Baby Red Potatoes
- Broccoli
- Salt
- Onion Powder
- Garlic Powder
- Ground Ginger
- Olive Oil
Potatoes—Start by preheating your oven to 440°F. While that’s heating up, chop up your baby reds into thin chunks and place them in a baking pan with aluminum foil and olive oil. Season your potatoes with salt and place them into the oven when ready. You’re going to want to shake them around every 8-10 minutes, three times.Broccoli—Prepare a pot with water and set to boiling heat so we take our pieces of broccoli, rinse them, and place them into said pot with a metal strainer. Check occasionally after 6-8 minutes to see if they’re ready by poking with a fork; if it goes through with ease, they’re ready.Steak—Take a large, flat pan to the stove and set to medium-high heat, then season the steak with salt, onion powder, garlic powder, and ground ginger on both sides. Place the steak on the hot pan with some olive oil and let it sit on each side and the edges until you reach your desired degree of doneness.
