Ingredients

  • 1 pound flank steak; whole
  • 1 & 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
  • 1 & 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
  • 3/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper (f you don’t like spicy food then omit or reduce this spice)
  • 1 & 3/4 teaspoons kosher salt; divided, plus to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper; plus to taste
  • 2 tablespoons garlic infused olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons onion or shallot infused oil
    • For tips on shopping for infused oils, see my low-FODMAP recipe swap blog
    • These are AMAZING ways to add the flavors you love without any FODMAPS. The oil does not absorb the FODMAP carbohydrates so you can enjoy these without tummy problems 🙂
    • If you don’t have infused oil, you can substitute olive oil, but the flavor will be slightly different
  • 1 & 1/2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes (about 3 large yellow potatoes), cut into wedges
    • The thicker you cut your potatoes, the longer to bake, however if you prefer them thick, then adjust as desired!
    • You can substitute Russet potatoes, but for wedge cuts, Yukon Gold yield the best results
    • This video is helpful to show how easy it is to wedge the potatoes!
  • 1 & 1/2 bunches curly kale (about 10-12 ounces or 300-340g); stemmed and roughly torn
    • Kale only contains trace amounts of FODMAPs
  • Baking spray
  • Optional: lemon or lime wedges

Directions

  • Place flank steak in a large resealable plastic freezer bag. Place rosemary, thyme, crushed red pepper (optional), 3/4 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and the garlic infused oil with the steak and swish it around to mix and coat the beef
  • Seal bag, and chill for 30 minutes to 24 hours (if you can marinate longer it enhances the flavor)
  • When ready to bake, cover a large rimmed sheet pan with aluminum foil and spray with baking spray
  • Place top oven rack 6 inches from heat and preheat oven to 450°F (this is usually the second rung, too close and the kale will burn on the broil setting)
  • Stir together potatoes, 2 tablespoons onion or shallot infused oil, and 1 teaspoon salt
  • Spread in an even layer on a heavy-duty aluminum foil-lined rimmed baking sheet
  • Bake potatoes in preheated oven 20 minutes, they should be brown and mostly cooked through. If they appear underdone, then bake longer
  • Remove from oven, and move potatoes to outer edges of pan
  • Place kale in center of pan, and top with steak (it will seem like a lot of kale, but it shrinks with cooking)
  • Increase oven temperature to broil, and broil for 3-5 mins (depending on thickness of your steak), then flip meat and vegetables and broil 3-5 minutes more or to desired degree of doneness
    • Rare: internal temperature 125 F
    • Medium rare: internal temperature 135 F
    • Medium: internal temperature 140 F
  • Remove from oven, and let stand 5 minutes
  • Sprinkle with finishing salt and fresh pepper, if desired
    • I also like to give a squirt of lemon or lime juice over the kale for a little tang
  • Cut steak across the grain, and drizzle with pan drippings
  • Serve steak with kale and potatoes
