Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Pat dry your ribeye or sirloin steaks and season both sides with salt, pepper, thyme, and rosemary. Sear in olive oil for 3-4 minutes per side until medium-rare. Remove and let rest.
  2. In the same skillet, reduce heat to low and melt butter. Add minced garlic, cooking for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned. Set aside.
  3. Peel and slice the russet potatoes about 1/8 inch thick. In a bowl, mix with half of the garlic butter, salt, pepper, thyme, and rosemary.
  4. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Layer half of the potato mixture in a baking dish, add steak pieces, then half of the cheddar. Repeat layering.
  5. Cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes until cheese is bubbly and golden-brown.
  6. Allow to rest for 5-10 minutes before serving to help flavors meld.
