Steak Frites (Steak and Fries)

🧂 Ingredients

• 2 New York strip steaks
• 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 1/2 tablespoons fajita seasoning

  or store-bought
• 2 small jalapenos

  thinly sliced (use serrano peppers for a spicier option)
• 1/3 cup diced red onion
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
• 3 limes, quartered
• 1 20-32 ounce bag of prepackaged frozen french fries

  depending on serving preference
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• Salt

  optional

Instructions

• 1 Cook your french fries in the oven according to package directions. If using an
  air fryer, set to 425 degrees F, place french fries in the fryer basket along
  with olive oil and salt (optional), and cook for 20-25 minutes. Shake them
  halfway through for even cooking.
• 2 Combine fajita seasoning mix according to recipe instructions.
• 3 While fries are cooking, preheat your grill or Blackstone griddle to high heat.
  Oil the grates or griddle surface with 1 tablespoon oil.
• 4 Brush both New York strip steaks with the remaining 1/2 tablespoon oil and
  season them with fajita spice mixture. Add a little more salt if desired.
• 5 Place the steaks on the hot grill and cook for 3-4 minutes per side or once it
  reaches your desired doneness. Keep a reliable meat thermometer to pull them at
  the right time.
• 6 Remove the steaks from the grill, place them onto a clean cutting board, and let
  them rest for 5 minutes.
• 7 Assembling steak frites
• 8 Arrange the french fries onto a serving platter.
• 9 Slice the steak into strips and place them over top. Garnish with chopped red
  onions, cilantro, and jalapeno slices. Serve immediately and enjoy!
• 10 Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  Rewarm in the oven at 325 degrees until heated through. Keep in mind that the
  toppings may wilt during reheating.
• 11 If you plan to make extra for later, store the garnish, steak, and french fries
  separately and reheat the steak and fries as instructed above. Add the garnish
  right before serving.
