From the Test Kitchen

Chefs, tonight’s meal is a master class in hearty steakhouse fare. Our sirloin steaks are simply seasoned with salt and pepper and then pan-seared to perfection. Yukon Gold potatoes, roasted until they’re crispy and tender, are an easy and delicious side. We’re serving them alongside our take on creamed kale, which we’re making with Parmesan, butter and garlic for a rich and robust bite.

Place the potatoes on a sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper; toss to thoroughly coat. Arrange in a single, even layer.

While the potatoes roast, in a large pan, heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the kale (working in batches if necessary) and ½ cup of water; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, 2 to 4 minutes, or until the kale has wilted and the liquid has cooked off. Transfer to a strainer; hold or rest the strainer over a bowl. Using a spoon, press down on the cooked kale to release as much liquid as possible; discard the liquid. Transfer the drained kale to a cutting board and finely chop. Wipe out the pan.
