  4. Pat the steaks dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and pepper.
  5. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  6. Place the steaks in the pan and sear for 3–4 minutes per side, aiming for an internal temperature of 135°F for medium-rare.
  7. Let the steaks rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  8. Spoon the creamy mashed potatoes onto a plate and slice the rested steak against the grain.
  9. Drizzle with pan juices or sauce of your choice and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve immediately.

Notes

Make sure to peel and cube the potatoes uniformly for even cooking. For added flavor, consider using roasted garlic or herbs in the mashed potatoes. Store leftover steak and mashed potatoes separately to maintain optimal taste. Experiment with different cuts of steak or potato types based on personal preference. For a gourmet touch, drizzle truffle oil over the mashed potatoes before serving.
