🥩 Garlic Butter Steak & Crispy Potatoes Foil Packets
Serves: 4
Prep Time: 15 min | Cook Time: 20–25 min
🥔 Ingredients
-
1 lb (450 g) steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
(sirloin, ribeye, or New York strip work best) -
1 lb baby potatoes, halved or quartered
-
3 tbsp butter, melted
-
3 cloves garlic, minced
-
1 tbsp olive oil
-
1 tsp salt
-
½ tsp black pepper
-
1 tsp Italian seasoning (or use rosemary + thyme)
-
1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Optional add-ins:
-
½ small onion, sliced
-
1 cup mushrooms or bell peppers, sliced
🔥 Instructions
1. Prep the ingredients
-
Preheat grill to medium-high heat (400°F / 200°C) or oven to 425°F (220°C).
-
In a large bowl, mix potatoes with 1 tbsp melted butter, olive oil, salt, pepper, and half the garlic.
-
In another bowl, toss steak cubes with remaining butter, garlic, and seasoning.
2. Assemble foil packets
-
Tear 4 large sheets of heavy-duty foil (about 12×16 inches each).
-
Divide potatoes evenly among the foil sheets.
-
Top each with steak pieces.
-
Seal packets tightly, folding edges to keep juices in (but leave a little room for steam).
3. Cook
-
On the grill: Place packets over direct heat for 8–10 minutes per side, until steak is cooked to desired doneness and potatoes are tender.
-
In the oven: Bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through if possible.
4. Finish & serve
-
Carefully open packets (watch for steam!).
-
Garnish with chopped parsley and, if you like, drizzle extra melted butter or sprinkle shredded Parmesan on top.
Serve right in the foil for an easy cleanup meal! 🥰
💡 Tips & Variations
-
For extra crisp potatoes: Microwave or parboil potatoes for 3–4 minutes before adding to the foil.
-
Want smoky flavor? Add a dash of smoked paprika or grill over charcoal.
-
Veggie boost: Add green beans, asparagus, or corn pieces before sealing.
-
Camping-friendly: Prep packets ahead of time and keep chilled until ready to cook.
