Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Wash and dry produce. Dice potatoes into ½-inch pieces. Trim, peel and cut carrots on a diagonal into ½-inch-thick pieces. Trim and thinly slice mushrooms. Peel and mince garlic. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens.
  2. On a baking sheet, toss potatoes with a drizzle of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. On the same sheet, toss carrots with olive oil, salt and pepper. Roast on top rack until golden brown and crispy, 20-25 minutes. (For 4 servings, use two sheets and rotate racks halfway.)
  3. While vegetables roast, heat a drizzle of olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring, until golden brown and slightly crisp, 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a small bowl. Wipe pan clean.
  4. Pat steak dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper. Heat a drizzle of oil in the same pan over medium-high heat. Add steak and cook to desired doneness, 4-7 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board to rest. Wipe pan clean.
  5. Heat a drizzle of olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in the same pan over medium-high heat. Add garlic and scallion whites; cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in beef stock concentrate and ¼ cup water (⅓ cup for 4). Bring to a simmer, then stir in mushrooms and any resting juices from steak. Cook until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in sour cream until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
  6. Slice steak against the grain. Divide steak, potatoes and carrots among plates. Spoon mushroom cream sauce over steak. Garnish with scallion greens and serve.

Recipe Tips

For even cooking, let the steak come to room temperature for 15-20 minutes before searing.

Use a meat thermometer for perfect doneness: 130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium.

If the sauce seems too thick, add a splash of water or broth to reach desired consistency.

FAQ

Can I use a different cut of steak?

Yes, you can substitute ranch steak with sirloin, flank or strip steak. Adjust cooking time as needed.

Can I make this dairy-free?

To make it dairy-free, use a plant-based butter and sour cream alternative. The sauce may have a slightly different flavor but will still be delicious.

How do I store leftovers?

Store leftover steak, vegetables and sauce separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a pan or microwave.
