Ingredients
Gather the following ingredients to create your own Steak and Potato Foil Packs:
- 1 1/2 pounds sirloin steak, cut into cubes
- 4 medium potatoes, washed and cubed
- 1 onion, sliced
- 2 bell peppers, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare Foil Packs
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or your oven to 400°F (200°C). Tear off 4 large pieces of heavy-duty aluminum foil, each about 12 inches square.
Step 2: Season Steak and Vegetables
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cubed steak, cubed potatoes, sliced onion, sliced bell peppers, minced garlic, olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Toss until the steak and vegetables are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Step 3: Assemble Foil Packs
Divide the steak and vegetable mixture evenly among the foil pieces, placing it in the center of each piece. Fold the foil over the steak and vegetables, sealing the edges tightly to create individual foil packs.
Step 4: Cook
Place the foil packs on the preheated grill or in the oven and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the steak is cooked to your desired level of doneness and the potatoes are tender. If cooking on the grill, flip the foil packs halfway through the cooking time to ensure even cooking.
Step 5: Serve
Carefully open the foil packs, taking care to avoid steam. Sprinkle the steak and potato mixture with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness, if desired. Serve the foil packs hot, straight from the grill or oven, and enjoy the delicious flavors of Steak and Potato Foil Packs!
