Prep: Cook: 2 servingsAmerican
Ingredients
2 ribeye steaks (1 inch thick)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped
1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
1 pound potatoes, peeled and cubed
1/2 cup milk
4 tablespoons butter
4 cups mixed greens
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1/4 cup balsamic vinaigrette
Instructions
Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat.
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper. Rub this mixture over the steaks and let them marinate for 15 minutes.
While the steaks are marinating, boil the potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and return to the pot.
Add milk and butter to the potatoes, then mash until creamy and smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Cook the steaks on the grill or skillet for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until your desired doneness is reached.
In a large bowl, combine mixed greens and cherry tomatoes. Drizzle with balsamic vinaigrette and toss gently.
Serve the steaks alongside the garlic mashed potatoes and the fresh side salad for a complete date night dinner.
