Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Cooking the Potatoes:
Prepare the Potatoes:
In a large bowl, toss the halved potatoes with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Roast the Potatoes:
Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden and tender, flipping halfway through.
3. Cooking the Steaks:
Heat the Skillet:
Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter.
Cook the Steaks:
Once the butter is melted and foamy, add the steaks to the skillet.
Cook the steaks for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until they reach your desired doneness.
During the last minute of cooking, add the minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme to the skillet. Baste the steaks with the garlic butter using a spoon.
Rest the Steaks:
Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a plate, loosely covered with foil, for about 5 minutes.
4. Combining and Serving:
Toss the Potatoes in Garlic Butter:
In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter.
Once melted, add the roasted potatoes and toss to coat them in the garlic butter and herbs.
Serve:
Place the steaks on plates and serve with the garlic butter potatoes.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.

Tips for Perfect Garlic Butter Steak and Potatoes:
Room Temperature Steaks: Let the steaks sit at room temperature before cooking to ensure even cooking.
Don’t Overcrowd the Skillet: Cook the steaks in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the skillet, which can cause steaming instead of searing.
Resting Time: Allowing the steaks to rest after cooking helps retain their juices, making them more tender and flavorful.
Enjoy your delicious garlic butter steak and potatoes as a hearty and satisfying meal!
