Story
Cover your steaks with cheese? What could go wrong there? It’s a delicious and easy dish for you to recreate and make for someone you appreciate a little more. The entire dish comes well together with the juicy steaks, rich cheese, spicy potatoes, and pepper sauce. I add my raspberry onions for a little sweet to accomplish the rest of the flavors. Together they all blend just incredible. I love using tenderloin here, but honestly, you could use sirloin or a less tender steak if that is what you have.

Make raspberry onions, set to simmer while you make the rest.
Start by making Spicy Potatoes. Turn your baking oven to 225oC first.
Add a tablespoon of olive oil and 100 grams of butter to a frying pan. Heat to a maximum.
Add steaks into the pan, Depending on how rare you want them; they should cook for 30 seconds to 2 minutes on each side. Use a tablespoon to add the melted butter over the steaks while they sear. This way you shouldn’t have to sear the sides of the steak, but check to make sure the entire steak is seared.
Take potatoes out of the oven, add steaks on top of the potatoes. Also, add a slice of mozzarella on each steak, and you could decorate with a shredded purple carrot.
Add the baking casserole back into the oven. Steaks should only be baking for 10 minutes. Rest them until serving.
Make pepper sauce, and plate everything up.
I keep the jar of raspberry onions on the serving table. My guests always want more.
