Cooking Steps

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and toss the baby potatoes with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet.
Roast the potatoes for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through for even browning.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Pat the steak dry, rub with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Sear for 3–4 minutes without moving.
Turn the steak and cook for another 3–4 minutes for medium doneness. Let it rest for 5 minutes after cooking.
Slice the steak against the grain and serve with the crispy potatoes. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
