Step-by-step instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) for the sweet potato.
2. Wrap the sweet potato in foil and place it in the oven, letting it bake for about 45 minutes to an hour, until it’s tender.
3. While your sweet potato is baking, season the ribeye steak generously with salt and pepper.
4. Heat a skillet over high heat. Once hot, sear the ribeye for 4-5 minutes on each side for a perfect medium-rare finish.
5. As the steak cooks, trim and halve the Brussels sprouts.
6. In another skillet, add a splash of oil and sauté the Brussels sprouts until they’re golden and fragrant.
7. Drizzle honey and balsamic vinegar over the sprouts, tossing until they are beautifully coated and caramelized.
8. In a small bowl, combine softened butter with cinnamon and brown sugar to create a sweet topping for the sweet potato.
9. Once everything is cooked, plate the ribeye alongside the glazed Brussels sprouts and the baked sweet potato. Don’t forget to top the sweet potato with cinnamon butter and a drizzle of hot honey for an extra kick!

How to serve Ribeye avec des choux de Bruxelles au balsamique de miel et une patate douce au four

Present your dish with finesse by slicing the ribeye and arranging it on a large platter. Surround it with the vibrant Brussels sprouts and the sweet potato, making sure to add the cinnamon butter on top. Pairing this with a crisp arugula salad or a glass of red wine can elevate the experience even further. You might also consider adding some crusty bread to soak up any remaining sauce!

Storage and reheating tips

To keep your leftovers fresh, store them separately in airtight containers. The ribeye can be refrigerated for up to 3 days, while the Brussels sprouts and sweet potato generally retain their quality for about the same time. Reheat in the microwave or covered in an oven until warmed through, ensuring food safety for your leftovers.

Helpful cooking tips

• Searing the steak: Make sure your skillet is hot before adding the ribeye; this helps achieve that beautiful crust we all love.
• Brussels sprouts: For the best texture, don’t overcrowd the pan while sautéing, as this can lead to steaming rather than browning.
• Sweet potato: If you’re short on time, you can slice the sweet potato and bake it without foil to speed up cooking.

Creative twists

• Spice it up: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the Brussels sprouts for a spicy kick.
• Sweet substitutions: Try maple syrup in place of honey for a different sweetness.
• Vegan option: Swap the ribeye for grilled portobello mushrooms, and replace butter with olive oil for a delicious plant-based meal.
