Ingredients:

• For the Foil Pack:
  • 1 ½ lbs steak (sirloin, ribeye, or your favorite cut), cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 lb baby potatoes, quartered
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter, cubed (optional)
  • Aluminum foil for wrapping

Instructions/Directions:

1. Preheat the Grill or Oven: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 400°F/200°C) or your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Season the Steak and Potatoes: In a large bowl, combine the steak pieces and quartered baby potatoes. Add olive oil, minced garlic, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss until everything is well coated.
3. Prepare the Foil Packets: Tear off 4 large sheets of aluminum foil (about 12×12 inches each). Divide the steak and potato mixture evenly among the foil sheets. Optionally, place a small cube of butter in each packet for added richness.
4. Seal the Packets: Fold the sides of the foil over the steak and potatoes to create sealed packets. Ensure the edges are tightly crimped to trap the steam inside.
5. Cook the Packets:
   • For the Grill: Place the foil packets directly on the grill grates and cook for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the steak is cooked to your liking and the potatoes are tender.
   • For the Oven: Place the foil packets on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, until the potatoes are soft and the steak is cooked through.
6. Serve: Carefully open the foil packets (watch out for the steam) and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve the garlic steak and potatoes directly from the foil for a rustic and delicious meal.
