Ingredients

• 2 ribeye steaks (1 inch thick)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

• 2 cups baby potatoes, halved
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter
• 1/4 cup milk

• 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• Fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

3. Meanwhile, boil baby potatoes in salted water until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and mash with butter and milk until smooth. Set aside.
4. Toss asparagus with balsamic vinegar, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Place on a baking sheet and roast in the oven at 400°F for 10-12 minutes.
5. Grill the steaks for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting time for your preferred doneness.
6. Remove steaks from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
7. Serve the grilled steak alongside garlic mashed potatoes and roasted asparagus, garnished with fresh parsley.
