Instructions

  1. Add cubed potatoes to a pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook 12–15 minutes until fork-tender. Drain well.
  2. Steam broccoli florets 4–6 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Set aside.
  3. Pat steaks dry. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear steaks 3–5 minutes per side (depending on thickness) until desired doneness. Add 1 tbsp butter in the last minute and baste. Remove steaks to rest.
  4. In the same skillet, melt 1 tbsp butter. Add garlic and cook 20 seconds. Add shrimp (and paprika if using) and sauté 1–2 minutes per side until pink and opaque. Splash with lemon juice if desired. Remove shrimp.
  5. Reduce heat to medium. Add 1 tbsp butter, then whisk in flour for 30–60 seconds. Slowly whisk in beef broth and Worcestershire. Simmer 2–3 minutes until thickened. Season to taste.
  6. Mash drained potatoes with butter, milk, salt, and pepper. Stir in cheddar and sour cream (if using) until creamy. Top with a little extra cheddar and parsley.
  7. In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour for 1 minute. Slowly whisk in milk and simmer 2–3 minutes until thick. Stir in cheddar until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Pour over broccoli.
  8. Place steak on plates, spoon pan gravy over the top, and pile shrimp on the steak. Serve with cheesy mashed potatoes and broccoli cheese sauce.

Notes

  • Adjust steak doneness to your preference.
  • Use fresh shrimp for best results.
