Tips
- For the potatoes, add more avocado oil than you think you need.
- For crispy potatoes, place them cut side down in the baking dish.
- Add garlic to the potatoes later to prevent it from burning.
- Salt brine one steak overnight if you have enough time.
- Take the steak out of the fridge at least 30 minutes before cooking.
- Love avocado oil because it has a high smoke point.
- Cook the steak with the fat cap side down until golden brown.
