Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Lay out a large sheet of foil and place the steak in the center.
- Sprinkle meat tenderizer, seasoned salt, and lemon pepper over the steak.
- Sprinkle vinegar evenly over the steak.
- Surround the steak with sliced potatoes and onions.
- Wrap the foil securely around the ingredients.
- Bake for approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour until the steak and vegetables are tender.
Tips & Substitutions
For a more tender steak, consider marinating it overnight with the vinegar, seasoned salt, and lemon pepper. If you don't have meat tenderizer, using a fork to poke holes in the steak can help. You can substitute the potatoes with sweet potatoes for a different flavor, or try adding bell peppers for extra color. This meal pairs well with a side of Butter Stick Biscuits.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the steak meal directly from the foil for a rustic presentation. Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or thyme for added flavor. This dish pairs beautifully with a crisp green salad or roasted vegetables for a complete meal. For dessert, consider serving a slice of Golden Carrot Cake to round out the dining experience.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place the steak and veggies in a baking dish, cover with foil, and warm in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) until heated through, about 20-25 minutes. Avoid microwaving to keep the steak tender.

Frequently Asked Questions
What type of steak is best for this recipe?
You can use any cut of steak you prefer, such as ribeye, sirloin, or flank steak. Ribeye is particularly flavorful due to its marbling, while flank steak is lean and cooks quickly. Just ensure your chosen cut is suitable for baking, and adjust the cooking time based on thickness.
Can I make this recipe in advance?
Yes, you can prepare the steak and vegetables the night before. Season the steak and assemble everything in foil, then refrigerate. When ready to cook, simply preheat the oven and bake as directed. This can save time for busy weeknights or special occasions.
What can I serve with this all-in-one meal?
This meal is quite filling on its own, but you can enhance it with a light side salad or steamed broccoli for added freshness. Additionally, a glass of red wine or a refreshing 'No Fat Strawberry Shake' can complement the flavors beautifully. For dessert, consider Mrs. Simons Lemon Chess Pie for a sweet finish.
