Ingredients for Baked Potatoes With Rib Eye Steak Hash

  • Russet Potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • Kosher Salt
  • Rib Eye Steaks
  • Red Bell Pepper
  • Orange Bell Pepper
  • 1/2 medium onion, chopped
  • Red Jalapeno Chiles
  • Heavy Whipping Cream
  • Fresh Thyme
  • 4 teaspoons butter (1 teaspoon per potato)

How to Make Baked Potatoes With Rib Eye Steak Hash

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Wash and scrub 4 large russet potatoes. Rub with 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and sprinkle generously with coarse sea salt.
  3. Pierce each potato several times with a fork. Place directly on the oven rack with a baking sheet on a lower rack to catch drips.
  4. Bake for 1 hour, or until tender.
  5. While potatoes bake, season 1 lb rib eye steak generously with salt and pepper.
  6. Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
  7. Sear steak for 2 minutes per side, until browned but still rare. Transfer to a plate and let rest.
  8. Reduce heat to medium. Add 1 bell pepper (any color), 1/2 medium onion (chopped), and 2 jalapeños (minced, wear gloves!) to the skillet.
  9. Sauté until peppers are softened and onions caramelized, about 30 minutes.
  10. Cut the rested steak crosswise into 1/4-inch thick slices, then halve lengthwise into strips.
  11. Add 1/2 cup heavy cream, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme (or oregano/marjoram), and the sliced steak to the pepper mixture.
  12. Simmer until steak is heated through and the cream has slightly thickened, about 1 minute.
  13. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  14. Cut a cross into the top of each baked potato and gently press the sides to open slightly.
  15. Add 1 teaspoon butter, salt, and pepper to the inside of each potato and mash lightly with a fork.
  16. Spoon the steak and pepper mixture generously into each potato.
  17. Garnish with fresh thyme sprigs, if desired.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
