1. Preheat and Prep

• Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) or prepare your grill to medium-high heat.
• Cut 4 large pieces of heavy-duty aluminum foil, about 12–14 inches each.

2. Prepare the Garlic Herb Butter

• In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, minced garlic, thyme, rosemary, paprika, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Set aside.

3. Assemble the Foil Packets

1. Potatoes: Divide the halved baby potatoes evenly among the foil sheets, arranging them in the center. Drizzle with a bit of the garlic butter mixture.
2. Steak: Add the cubed steak on top of the potatoes. Drizzle with more garlic butter to ensure everything is well-coated.
3. Optional Veggies: If using bell peppers or onions, layer them on top for added flavor and color.

4. Seal the Packets

• Bring the edges of the foil together and fold tightly to seal, ensuring no steam escapes. Leave a little room inside for air circulation and even cooking.

5. Cook

• Oven Method: Place the foil packets on a baking sheet and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the steak is cooked to your preferred doneness.
• Grill Method: Place the packets directly on the grill grates and cook for 12–15 minutes, flipping halfway through.
• Campfire Method: Place the packets over medium-hot coals and cook for 15–20 minutes, flipping occasionally.

6. Serve

• Carefully open the foil packets (watch out for hot steam!). Garnish with fresh parsley and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese, if desired. Serve directly from the foil for easy cleanup.

Tips for Perfect Foil Packets

• Steak Doneness: For medium-rare steak, aim for an internal temperature of 135°F (57°C). For medium, aim for 145°F (63°C).
• Even Cooking: Cut the potatoes small enough to cook at the same rate as the steak.
• Customize: Add veggies like zucchini, mushrooms, or green beans for a personal touch.

Serving Suggestions

• As Is: These packets are a complete meal on their own.
• With a Side Salad: A crisp Caesar or garden salad pairs well.
• With Bread: Serve with garlic bread or dinner rolls to soak up the buttery sauce.

Storage and Reheating Tips

• Refrigerate Leftovers: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
• Reheat: Reheat the contents of the foil packet in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10–12 minutes or microwave for 1–2 minutes.
