There is something undeniably satisfying about preparing a meal that balances robust, savory flavors with a vibrant, earthy side dish, and this Flank Steak with Twice Baked Fingerling Potatoes is a culinary triumph. The star of the show is undoubtedly the flank steak, which transforms into a tender, juicy masterpiece when marinated in a zesty blend of balsamic vinegar, fresh lemon juice, aromatic rosemary, and a hint of truffle oil. This marinade not only infuses the meat with deep complexity but also ensures a perfect sear on the grill, creating a beautiful char that complements the rich, beefy flavor without overwhelming it. Sliced thinly against the grain, every bite offers a delightful texture that melts in your mouth, making it an ideal centerpiece for a hearty dinner or a gourmet lunch.

What truly elevates this recipe, however, is the accompanying twice-baked fingerling potatoes. These tiny, nutty potatoes are first roasted until soft and caramelized with onions, garlic, and herbs, then returned to the oven after being tossed in a luxurious mixture of grated Parmesan, thyme, and truffle oil. The result is a side dish that feels like a gourmet experience, with a crispy, golden crust giving way to a creamy, cheesy interior. The combination of the smoky steak and the cheesy, herb-infused potatoes creates a harmonious flavor profile that is both comforting and sophisticated. Best of all, this entire dish is naturally gluten-free, making it a perfect choice for those with dietary restrictions without sacrificing any taste or texture. Whether you are hosting a gathering or simply craving a weeknight meal that feels special, this recipe delivers a memorable dining experience that everyone will love.

Ingredients

  • 0.3 cup balsamic vinegar 
  • pound fingerling potatoes 
  • pound flank steak 
  • teaspoon garlic minced
  • teaspoon garlic puree 
  • 0.3 cup grapeseed oil 
  • tablespoons grapeseed oil 
  •  juice of lemon juiced
  • teaspoon kosher salt and pepper blend black freshly ground (60:40 mixture)
  • 0.3 cup onion chopped
  • 0.5 cup parmesan finely grated
  • teaspoons parsley leaves divided minced
  • teaspoon rosemary leaves minced
  • teaspoon thyme leaves minced
  • tablespoon truffle oil 

Equipment

  • bowl
  • baking sheet
  • oven
  • casserole dish
  • grill
  • grill pan
  • cutting board

Directions

  1. In a bowl, mix together vinegar, oil, rosemary, garlic, lemon juice and salt and pepper blend.
  2. Put the steak in an 8 by 12-inch casserole dish and generously coat with the vinegar mixture. Allow to marinate for 30 minutes to 1 hour in the refrigerator.
  3. Preheat an outdoor grill or indoor grill pan.
  4. Remove the steak from the marinade, straining excess marinade from the steak. Removing the excess marinade will prevent flaming, or charring of the steak during cooking.
  5. Put the steak on the grill, and cook over high heat, about 8 to 9 minutes per side.
  6. Remove the steak from the grill to a cutting board and let rest, about 5 minutes, before cutting. Slice the steak on the bias, top to bottom, against the grain, 1/4-inch thick. Arrange the steak over the potatoes on a serving platter and serve.
  7. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  8. In a large bowl, mix together the oil, 1 teaspoon of parsley, the garlic, onion, and salt and pepper blend.
  9. Add the potatoes and toss to coat.
  10. Transfer the seasoned potatoes onto a baking sheet and roast until the onions are soft to touch, about 20 minutes.
  11. Remove the potatoes from the oven and set aside. In a large bowl combine the truffle oil, cheese, remaining parsley and thyme.
  12. Add potatoes and toss to coat evenly. Return the potatoes to the baking sheet and roast for additional 20 minutes.
