If I’m being honest, I’m not a real fan of steak with the exception of this recipe that a friend sent me one summer. My apartment was hot and I just didn’t want to spend any more time in the kitchen than necessary. My friend asked if I had some basic ingredients and once I said yes she told me about these foil packets. These steak and garlic potato foil packets are juicy and full of flavor but most importantly they are quick to make.

Looking for a simple and healthy meal that's done in 30 minutes? Look no further because this recipe checks off all the boxes. Juicy and savory seasoned Garlic Steak and Potatoes are simply the most perfect baked or grilled and done in 30 minutes
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs sirloin steaks
- 1 lb baby potatoes cut into quarters
- 1 onion
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp parsley
- 1 tbsp minced garlic
- 1 tbsp Italian seasoning
- 2 tbsp butter
Instructions
Prep the foil packets:
- Prep the steak: Cut the steak into pieces (2.5 – 3 inches for well done, 3 – 4 inches for medium, 5 inches for rarer steak). Marinate it if you like.
- Combine ingredients: Place the steak, potatoes, onion, olive oil, parsley, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper in a large bowl and toss well.
- Assemble foil packets: Set out 4 pieces of aluminum foil, at least 12×12 inches. Evenly divide the steak and potatoes between the middles of the foil sheets. Top with butter cubes, then fold the foil over the steak and potatoes and seal well.
Cook the foil packets:
- In the oven: Bake the steak foil packets at 425°F for around 25-30 minutes, or until done to your liking. If you want a char on the steaks, open the packets and broil for 3-4 minutes in the end.
- Careful when opening the packets – hot steam ahead!
