Blue Cheese Flank Steak and Parmesan Potatoes

I will preface this post by saying there is dairy EVERYWHERE in these recipes. Yesterday was Hubs birthday, so as a treat, I let him have dairy galore. Every now and then I like to give him food that I know he will be super excited about. Although I didn't get to enjoy the dinner with him, he scarfed it down with a smile on his face.

I made a blue cheese stuffed flank steak with parmesan potatoes. These potatoes are a great appetizer to serve for a party as well!

Oh and just incase he didn't have enough dairy with dinner, I made him homemade ice-cream!! Thanks to my sister for sending me the recipe. She has two precious kiddos that love homemade ice-cream. I will share that recipe with you another day!

Blue Cheese Flank Steak

Ingredients: 

1 1/2 pound flank steak

1/4 cup olive oil

1/4 cup GF soy sauce

2 T worcestershire sauce 

1/2 T garlic powder

blue cheese 

What to do:

Lay out a pieces of parchment or wax paper. Lay the flank steak on top of the paper and then cover with another pieces of wax or parchment paper.

Using a meat mallet, or something heavy you have around your kitchen, hammer the meat to 1/4 - 1/2 inch thickness.

Place your flank steak into a large baking dish and cover with the olive oil, soy sauce, Worcestershire, and garlic powder.

Flip the meat over a few times to ensure the marinade is mixed well. I like to press my fingers into the meat to create little pockets of marinade. Let marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours.

When you are ready to cook, preheat your oven to 425°. Lay your meat out onto a large cutting board. Sprinkle a layer of blue cheese onto the meat.

Roll the steak with the grain to create a pinwheel style.

Tie the steak roll with cooking twine to ensure the steak stays together.

Place on baking sheet and roast for 35-40 minutes.

Once completely cooked. slice the steak agains the grain into about 1/2 inch slices.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup parmesan cheese 

1 t garlic powder

 1 1/2 pounds yukon gold potatoes

2 T butter, melted

Preheat oven to 425°.

Slice your potatoes in half lengthwise.

In a shallow baking dish, mix together parmesan cheese and garlic powder.

Dip your potato into the butter and then into the parmesan mixture so that the cheese coats the potato.

Place the potato, skin side down, onto an aluminum covered baking sheet.

Bake for about 30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and potatoes are fork tender.

Thanks Y'all!
