Father’s Day Dinner: “Marry Me Again” Steak & Potatoes Feast
If your guy is more of a steak-and-spuds type, then honey—this is the dinner. Juicy steak, golden potatoes, sexy sides, and a dessert that makes him weak in the knees. This is not just dinner. This is a sizzling YES to second servings and second proposals.
Main Dish: Marry Me Again Garlic Butter Steak
Ingredients:
- 2 ribeye or NY strip steaks (1-inch thick)
- Salt, pepper, garlic powder
- 3 tbsp butter
- 3 garlic cloves (smashed)
- Fresh rosemary or thyme sprigs
- Optional: red pepper flakes for a little sass
Instructions:
- Let the steak sit out for 20–30 mins (room temp = juicier magic).
- Season both sides generously.
- Sear in a hot skillet with a touch of oil, 3–4 mins per side.
- Add butter, garlic, and herbs. Tilt the pan and spoon that liquid gold over the steaks.
- Rest for 5–10 mins. Slice. Moan. Repeat.
Side 1: Crispy Roasted Baby Potatoes
Because what’s steak without potatoes?
- Halve baby potatoes
- Toss with olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, and rosemary
- Roast at 425°F for 30–35 mins until golden and crispy
- Optional: drizzle with garlic butter or sprinkle parmesan on top for extra "marry me" energy
Side 2: Butter Garlic Asparagus or Spinach
(You choose your green weapon of choice—either one works, both are chef’s kiss)
For Asparagus:
- Toss spears in olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic
- Roast at 400°F for 12–15 mins
- Finish with melted butter and a squeeze of lemon
For Spinach:
- Sauté fresh spinach in a pan with butter and garlic
- Cook till wilted but still vibrant
- Hit it with a pinch of salt and call it fancy
Bonus Tip: Corn on the Cob (The Right Way)
Boil it first to make it tender, THEN slather it in butter, salt, pepper, and maybe even parmesan or chili lime seasoning if you’re feeling spicy.
Dessert: Bourbon Vanilla Ice Cream + Chocolate Drizzle
Easy, manly, and delicious.
- Scoop of vanilla ice cream
- Drizzle of warm chocolate sauce or hot fudge
- Add a splash of bourbon if you're grown and bold
Drink Pairing:
Old fashioned, cold beer, or blackberry bourbon smash. It’s Father’s Day, not a Monday meeting.
Whether it’s Dad, husband, Grandpa, or your grown-ass son who just got his own grill—this meal is a full-on love letter in food form. One bite and they’ll be like, “Damn, who needs a steakhouse when I’ve got this?”
