Steak with Creamy Peppercorn Sauce and Roasted Potatoes: A Classic Comfort Meal with Bold Flavors

This meal is best served immediately for optimal flavor and texture. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently on the stove, adding a splash of broth or cream to loosen the sauce if needed.

Variants:

Add Vegetables: Include sautéed green beans, asparagus, or roasted Brussels sprouts as an extra side dish to complement the steak and potatoes.
Different Sauces: If you’re not a fan of peppercorn, try a mushroom sauce or blue cheese sauce for a different twist.
Make It Spicy: Add some crushed red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the creamy sauce for a spicy kick.
FAQ:

1. Can I use a different type of steak?
Yes, you can use any cut of steak you prefer. Ribeye, sirloin, or filet mignon are great choices, but flank steak, strip steak, or even T-bone work well too.

2. Can I make the creamy peppercorn sauce ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the sauce in advance and reheat it gently over low heat when ready to serve. You may need to add a bit of cream or broth to adjust the consistency.

3. How do I cook the steak to my desired doneness?
Use a meat thermometer for accuracy. For medium-rare, aim for 130°F (54°C), for medium, 140°F (60°C), and for well-done, 160°F (71°C).
