Ingredients

  • 1 boneless beef strip steak, 1 inch thick (about 3/4 lb total)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Montreal steak grill seasoning
  • 4 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 3 cups frozen shredded hash browns (10 oz from 30-oz bag)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/2 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese (4 oz)
  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions
  • 2 slices bacon, crisply cooked and crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 1/2 teaspoon finely chopped garlic

Steps

  • 1
    Season steak on both sides with grill seasoning. In 10-inch nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium-high heat. Cook steak in oil 7 to 10 minutes, turning once, until medium-rare to medium (145°F to 160°F). Transfer steak to cutting board, and keep warm. Wipe out skillet with paper towels.
  • 2
    In medium bowl, mix hash browns, salt and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper. Add 2 tablespoons of the oil to skillet; heat over medium heat. Pack mixture firmly in skillet, leaving 1/2-inch space around edge.
  • 3
    Drizzle remaining 1 tablespoon oil evenly over hash browns. Cook 5 to 7 minutes or until bottom is brown. Using a heat-proof silicone spatula, cut hash browns in half; turn over carefully. Cook 5 to 7 minutes or until bottom is browned. Top with cheese, green onions and bacon.
  • 4
    Meanwhile, in small bowl, mix softened butter, garlic and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
  • 5
    Spread steak with butter mixture, and cut into 1/2-inch slices. Serve with hash browns.

Expert Tips

  • tip 1
    To complete your steakhouse experience, serve with sautéed spinach or green beans.
  • tip 2
    Cutting the hash browns in half in the pan makes them easier to turn over. Make sure to use a heatproof silicone spatula though, as a metal one may scratch your nonstick pan.
