INGREDIENTS
6 oz Beef Sirloin Steak
1 medium Yam
1 medium Plantain
1 tbsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 tsp Fresh Thyme
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F for roasting the yam.
Peel the yam, cut it into 1-inch cubes, toss with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, pepper, and a pinch of thyme, then spread on a baking sheet.
Roast the yam in the oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until tender and lightly caramelized.
While the yam is roasting, peel the plantain and cut it into thick slices. Steam the plantain slices in a steamer or a covered pot with a bit of water over medium heat for 8-10 minutes until soft.
Season the beef sirloin steak generously with salt and pepper. In a skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil and minced garlic, then sear the steak for about 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare (or adjust timing to achieve desired doneness).
Allow the steak to rest for about 5 minutes before slicing.
Plate the sliced steak alongside the roasted yam cubes and steamed plantain slices. Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh thyme if desired, and serve immediately.
