Rosemary Butter Steak with Mustard Cream Sauce

rosemary butter steak with mustard cream sauce and rosemary roasted potatoes

I’m not big on red meat. But the guy I’m dating loves it. So I took my first stab at cooking steak (ever!) and I did pretty well if I do say so myself. I searched for a simple but well-reviewed recipe that didn’t require me to purchase a bunch of ingredients I don’t commonly use. And epicurious came through for me, as usual. The one thing I’m upset about is that I didn’t constantly check on the meat, so it cooked all the way through even though I was looking to get it medium rare.

This recipe got a thumbs up from my man, even though the cooking temp wasn’t to his liking. He really enjoyed the rosemary butter that was smeared on top and he said the mustard cream sauce was a great complement. I served it with rosemary roasted potatoes as a simple and filling side.

Rosemary Roasted Potatoes

I had to share this super easy side dish! I made these potatoes when I needed a side for steak with rosemary butter. I figured I could echo the rosemary flavors in the potatoes and it came together really quickly. The potatoes cooked in the oven and became tender, and then I put them under the broiler to get them nice, crispy, and browned.

You always want to use a waxy potato for roasting, like Yukon Gold, fingerling, or red potatoes. They hold up much better during cooking than white or Russet potatoes, which are really starchy and break apart easily. You could even try this dish with baby potatoes cut in half — just increase the quantity.
