Instructions

Instructions

  • Begin by chopping baby potatoes, bell peppers, and onion into bite-sized pieces. Don’t forget to mince the garlic for that aromatic kick!
  • In a mixing bowl, coat your 1 pound of sirloin steak with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, the freshly minced garlic, salt, pepper, and 1 teaspoon of mixed dried oregano and thyme.
  • Lay out large sheets of aluminum foil. Place a generous portion of the chopped baby potatoes in the center, followed by the vibrant bell peppers and onion. Finally, layer the seasoned steak on top of the veggies.
  • Fold the foil tightly around the ingredients to create a secure packet, trapping in all the delightful steam and flavors. Make sure there are no openings!
  • Preheat your grill or oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the foil packets directly onto the grill grates or on a baking sheet, cooking them for about 25-30 minutes until everything is tender.
  • Carefully unwrap the packets—watch out for the hot steam! Serve the mouthwatering contents hot, garnished with fresh parsley if you like.

Notes

Ensure vegetables are cut into similar sizes for uniform cooking. Seal packets tightly to lock in moisture for juicy steak. Parboil potatoes if unsure about cooking through in foil. Experiment with seasonings for diverse flavors.
