Instructions
Prep. Preheat the oven to 425˚F.
Prepare the potatoes and roast. Toss the sliced potatoes with olive oil and season them with cornstarch, Italian Seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper; mix to combine. Arrange the potatoes in one layer on a sheet pan and roast for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, prep the steaks. Rub the steaks with olive oil. In a small mixing bowl, combine the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper; rub the spice mix all over the steaks.
Sear (optional).If you want to sear the steaks, heat a skillet (cast iron skillet, preferred) over medium-high until very hot. Add half of the butter and two steaks at a time; sear for 1 minute on each side. Remove from heat and set aside.
Prep the broccoli. Toss the broccoli with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Remove the sheet pan from the oven. Push the potatoes to the side to make room, and add the steak and broccoli to the sheet pan.
Roast. Put the sheet pan back in the oven and cook for 8 minutes, flipping the steaks halfway through.
Prep the shrimp. In the meantime, toss the shrimp with melted butter, garlic powder, and pepper.
Add the shrimp and continue to roast. Remove the sheet pan from the oven and add the shrimp to the pan around the steak and potatoes; broil for 3 minutes or until the shrimp are cooked through and the steak is cooked to the desired doneness.
Finish and serve. Remove the sheet pan from the oven and let it stand 5 minutes. Garnish with Parmesan cheese and parsley, and serve.
Notes
To avoid dry steaks, place the rack in the middle, or closer to the top of the oven.
Steaks do not need to be seared before being placed in the oven, but I prefer a little sear on top.
Steak continues to cook after it is removed from the oven; allow it to rest 5 minutes before cutting.
If you have a minute, make a bourbon cream sauce to serve with the steak and shrimp dinner.
