Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, parsley, thyme, smoked paprika, and red pepper flakes. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly incorporated.
Season both sides of the ribeye steaks with salt and pepper. If you have the time, marinate the steaks in a mixture of half the garlic butter for about 30 minutes.
Cut two large sheets of aluminum foil, about 12-14 inches long. Place half of the diced potatoes in the center of each foil sheet.
Place one seasoned steak on top of the potatoes in each packet. Spoon the garlic butter mixture generously over the steak and potatoes.
Fold the edges of the foil to create a secure packet, leaving enough space for steam to circulate.
Place the foil packets on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes.
Carefully remove the packets from the oven and check if the potatoes are tender by piercing them with a fork.
Transfer the contents of the packets onto plates, drizzle with any remaining garlic butter, and garnish with additional parsley if desired.
