Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Pat the ribeye or sirloin steaks dry and season with salt, pepper, thyme, and rosemary. Sear the steaks in a skillet with olive oil for 3-4 minutes per side until medium-rare.
  2. Reduce the skillet heat and add butter and minced garlic. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant.
  3. Peel and slice the russet potatoes into thin rounds. Mix with half the garlic butter and season with salt, pepper, thyme, and rosemary.
  4. In a greased baking dish, layer half of the seasoned potato slices, then add sliced steaks, and half of the cheddar cheese.
  5. Add the remaining potato slices, drizzle the rest of the garlic butter, and top with the remaining cheddar cheese.
  6. Cover with aluminum foil and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 40 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes until bubbly and golden.
  7. Let the casserole rest for 5-10 minutes before serving to let flavors meld.
