📌 Ingredients
For the Steak:
2 ribeye or strip steaks (1–1.5 inch thick)
Salt & pepper to taste
1 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp butter
2 cloves garlic, smashed
Fresh thyme or rosemary (optional, for pan basting)
For the Parmesan-Crusted Topping:
½ cup mayo
½ cup shredded mozzarella
¼ cup shredded Parmesan
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 tbsp chopped parsley
½ tsp garlic powder
Pinch of paprika (for a little color)
For the Loaded Baked Potato:
2 large russet potatoes, scrubbed
Olive oil + kosher salt (to rub the skins)
½ cup shredded cheddar
¼ cup sour cream
2 slices bacon, cooked & crumbled
2 tbsp green onions or chives
Butter, salt & pepper to taste
For the Broccoli:
2 cups broccoli florets
1 tbsp butter or olive oil
Garlic salt or lemon pepper (optional)

🔥 Instructions1. Bake the Potatoes:
Rub clean potatoes with oil and salt. Bake at 400°F for 45–60 min until crispy outside and fluffy inside. Slice open, fluff with fork, and top with butter, cheddar, sour cream, bacon, and green onion.
2. Make the Crusted Topping:
Mix mayo, cheeses, mustard, parsley, garlic powder, and paprika in a small bowl. Chill until ready to use.
3. Sear the Steaks:
Season steaks generously with salt & pepper. Sear in a hot skillet with olive oil for 2–3 min per side until crusty. Add butter, garlic, and herbs and baste for 1–2 more minutes. Cook to desired doneness (med-rare: 130°F).
4. Broil That Cheese:
Preheat broiler. Place steaks on a foil-lined sheet, top each with a generous scoop of cheesy crust mix. Broil for 2–3 min until golden and bubbly 🔥
5. Steam the Broccoli:
Steam broccoli until just tender (about 5 min). Toss with a little butter or olive oil and season lightly.
6. Plate & Serve:
Serve that juicy, cheesy steak alongside the loaded potato and fresh broccoli. Pair with a cold drink or cocktail and you’re livin’ GOOD 😎🍹
