Garlic Parmesan Steak Fries (Printable Version)

Crispy parmesan fries, sliced steak, and lemon herb aioli combine for a crave-worthy comfort dish.

# What You'll Need:

→ Fries

01 - 4 Russet Potatoes, peeled and sliced
02 - 3 tablespoons Olive Oil
03 - 2 teaspoons Kosher Salt
04 - ½ teaspoon Freshly Ground Black Pepper
05 - 2 teaspoons Garlic Powder
06 - 2 teaspoons Dried Oregano
07 - ½ cup Parmigiano Reggiano, freshly grated
08 - 2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley, chopped

→ Steak

09 - 1 New York Striploin Steak
10 - Salt, to taste
11 - Black Pepper, to taste
12 - 2 tablespoons Beef Tallow

→ Sauce

13 - ½ cup Lemon Herb Aioli
14 - Chives, finely chopped (optional, for garnish)

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Peel the potatoes and slice them lengthwise into thin planks. Cut those planks into ¼-inch strips to achieve fry shape.
02 - Fill a large bowl with cold ice water and soak the potato strips for 10-15 minutes to remove excess starch for crispier fries.
03 - While the potatoes soak, generously season both sides of the steak with salt and pepper. Let it rest at room temperature.
04 - Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
05 - Drain the soaked potatoes and pat them completely dry using a kitchen towel. Toss the fries in a large bowl with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and oregano until evenly coated.
06 - Spread the fries in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 30 minutes, flipping halfway through. Broil on high for the final 5 minutes to achieve extra crispiness.
07 - Sprinkle the freshly baked fries with grated parmesan cheese and chopped parsley while they are still hot.
08 - Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add beef tallow. Sear the fat cap of the steak for 1 minute, then sear each side for 2-3 minutes, adjusting for your preferred doneness. Allow the steak to rest for 5-7 minutes before slicing into strips.
09 - Layer the garlic parmesan fries on a serving platter, top with sliced steak, and drizzle with lemon herb aioli. Garnish with chopped chives, if desired. Serve and enjoy.
