Grilled Steak with Garlic Mashed Potatoes, Steamed Broccoli, and Rich Gravy

1. Prepare the Garlic Mashed Potatoes

1. 🥔 Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the cubed potatoes and garlic cloves. Boil until the potatoes are fork-tender (about 15–20 minutes).
2. 🧈 Drain the potatoes and garlic, then return them to the pot. Mash using a potato masher or electric mixer.
3. 🌟 Add the butter, heavy cream, and Parmesan (if using). Mix until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover and set aside.

2. Cook the Steamed Broccoli

1. 🥦 Place the broccoli florets in a steaming basket over boiling water. Cover and steam for 4–5 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
2. 🌟 Toss the steamed broccoli with butter or olive oil, and sprinkle lightly with salt. Keep warm.

3. Grill the Steak

1. 🥩 Rub both sides of the steaks with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and paprika. Let the steaks sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.
2. 🔥 Preheat your grill or grill pan to high heat. Once hot, place the steaks on the grill. Cook for 3–5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or to your preferred doneness.
3. 🌟 Let the steaks rest for 5–7 minutes after cooking to retain their juices.

4. Make the Rich Gravy

1. 🧈 Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for 1–2 minutes until lightly golden.
2. 🥣 Gradually whisk in the beef stock, ensuring no lumps form. Add the Worcestershire sauce and simmer until the gravy thickens (about 5 minutes).
3. 🌟 Season with salt and pepper to taste. Keep warm until ready to serve.

🥗 To Serve

1. Plate the mashed potatoes, steamed broccoli, and grilled steak.
2. Generously drizzle the rich gravy over the mashed potatoes and steak.
3. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley or a sprinkle of black pepper for a restaurant-style finish.

🤩 Enjoy your meal!
