Ingredient Notes
- Butter: It’s the catalyst of flavor.
- Olive Oil: Any neutral oil will work, but we recommend the flavor of olive oil.
Garlic: Fresh garlic adds the best flavor. You can substitute 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder per clove if needed. - Italian Seasoning: This is typically a blend of oregano, basil, thyme, and rosemary. If you don’t have it, use a mix of any of these dried herbs.
- Cherry Tomatoes: Keep them whole. You can also use grape tomatoes, whichever is available.
- Carrots: Slice carrots into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Make sure they’re all even so they cook at the same rate.
- Red Bell Pepper: Cut into 1-inch pieces. You can use any color bell pepper, but red adds a nice sweetness.
- Red Onion: Cut into 1-inch pieces, similar in size to the bell pepper, so they roast evenly.
- Broccoli Florets: Cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter. Ensure they are similar in size for even cooking.
- Sirloin Steaks: Use steaks that are about 1 inch thick. Adjust the broiling time slightly if your steak is thicker or thinner to achieve the desired doneness. You can also use a New York strip steak instead.
- Lemon: Zest the lemon before juicing it. The lemon zest and juice add a fresh, bright flavor to the dish right before serving.
Using More Than 2 Steaks
If you need more than two steaks, just add a couple more. This recipe can easily stretch to feed more people. For anything over 4 steaks, though, you’ll want to double the butter sauce and veggies, and use an additional sheet pan to ensure everything cooks evenly.
Prepping Your Vegetables
For the best results, be sure to cut your vegetables as directed in the recipe. This ensures they all cook evenly, so you won’t end up with a mix of undercooked or mushy veggies. Peppers and onions should be cut into 1-inch pieces, while carrots need to be sliced about 1/4 inch thick.
Steak Doneness
Whether you like your steak practically raw on the plate or cooked all the way through, this steak doneness chart will help you out. The chef’s standard is medium-rare—at this point, the steak will be tender, juicy, and melt-in-your-mouth delicious. Keep in mind that cooking times can vary depending on the thickness of the steak.
- Rare: 125°F (Cool red center)
- Medium Rare: 135°F (Warm red center)
- Medium: 145°F (Warm pink center)
- Medium Well: 150°F (Slightly pink center)
- Well Done: 160°F (No pink, cooked through)
Using a meat thermometer is the best way to ensure your steak reaches your preferred level of doneness.
Storage & Reheating Instructions
Refrigerate: Store any leftover steak and vegetables in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Reheat in the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F. Place the steak and vegetables on a baking sheet and heat for about 10 minutes, or until warmed through.
Reheat in a skillet: For a quick stovetop option, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add a small amount of oil and cook the steak and veggies for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until warmed through.

Since different people like their beef 🥩 done in different ways, how can you cook the vegetables? Can you cook the vegetables separately? Or do you cook the vegetables ahead of time?
If you are cooking to well done, you may want to cook the vegetables separately from the steak, but really, the added time on the roasting of the veggies doesn’t have a huge impact as they are pretty forgiving. You can also just add your steak to the veggies a little earlier.
