Nothing compares to a steak that is grilled to perfection, especially when paired with the accompanying sides. Additionally, the sides of steak have the power to make or destroy the meal. That’s why we’re offering this amazing steak supper with garlic parmesan asparagus and hasselback potatoes. This steak meal isn’t your ordinary one. This recipe will wow your guests and fulfill your craving for a filling, scrumptious feast.
Of course, the major attraction is the steak. This recipe calls for a particular marinade to ensure that the steak is tasty. The meat can be marinated overnight so you can just grill it to perfection on dinner day. Served with grilled veggies and red wine, this steak will delight even the most sophisticated guests.
Marinate the steak:
- Steak (2 pieces, such as rib eye or sirloin)
- Pineapple juice (1/4 cup)
- Apple cider vinegar (2 tablespoons)
- Brown sugar (1 tablespoon)
- Soy sauce (2 tablespoons)
- Garlic (2 cloves, crushed)
Steps:
- In a bowl combine pineapple juice, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, soy sauce and smashed garlic.
- Place steak in marinade, making sure it is evenly coated, and chill to marinate for at least 1 hour, ideally overnight.
- Preheat grill or pan to medium-high heat.
- Remove marinated steaks from refrigerator and let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes.
- Grill for 4-5 minutes per side (modify time according to thickness) until desired doneness is obtained (approximately 60°C for medium rare, 70°C for well-done).
- Remove steaks and allow rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

We can’t neglect the side dishes either. A wonderful and intriguing variant on the conventional baked potato is hasselback potatoes. This is a rustic yet delectable side dish that works wonderfully with meat. A lemon vinaigrette drizzled over a fresh arugula salad is a light alternative that balances the saltiness of the steak well.
Hasselback Potatoes:

- Garlic (2 cloves, sliced)
- Butter (2 tablespoons)

- Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
- Wash the potatoes and use a knife to make thin slices on the potatoes, but do not cut the bottoms.
- Brush the tops of the potatoes with olive oil, insert the garlic slices into the cuts and top with butter.
- Sprinkle with salt and black pepper and bake for 45-50 minutes, until crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.
