Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) for roasting the butternut squash.
  2. Peel and chop the butternut squash into uniform bite-sized cubes.
  3. Toss cubed butternut squash with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread on a baking sheet.
  4. Roast for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and fork-tender.
  5. Season steak with salt, pepper, and fresh herbs, then let rest for 15 minutes.
  6. Sear the steak in a hot skillet for 4-5 minutes on each side.
  7. Layer roasted butternut squash in bowls, topped with sliced steak and garlic in olive oil.

Notes

Rest your steak after cooking to lock in juices and enhance tenderness. Cut squash into uniform pieces for even roasting. Use a thermometer for perfect steak doneness. Fresh herbs elevate flavor—don't skip them! Experiment with vegetables or spices to suit preferences.
