Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash and peel the potatoes, then cut them into wedges.
- In a large bowl, toss the potato wedges with olive oil and paprika until evenly coated.
- Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown and crispy, turning halfway through.
- Season the beef fillets with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add a small amount of olive oil.
- Once the oil is hot, add the beef fillets.
- Cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until your desired doneness.
- Remove the beef fillets from the skillet and let them rest for at least 5 minutes.
- While the beef is resting, prepare the shrimps.
- If using raw shrimps, peel and devein them, leaving the tails on.
- Season with a bit of salt and pepper.
- In the same skillet used for the beef (add more olive oil if needed), cook the shrimps for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque.
- Remove the shrimps from the skillet and keep them warm.
- In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and finely chopped dill until well combined.
- Set aside.
- Arrange the beef fillets and shrimps on serving plates.
- Serve with a generous portion of paprika potatoes on the side.
- Offer dill mayonnaise in a small bowl for dipping or drizzling.
- Garnish with a bit of extra dill if desired, and enjoy your delicious Surf and Turf meal!
Tips:
- Make sure to pat the shrimp dry before cooking to achieve a good sear.
- Season the beef fillets generously with salt and pepper for enhanced flavor.
- Let the beef fillets rest for a few minutes after cooking to retain their juices.
- To add an extra layer of flavor, consider marinating the shrimp in garlic and lemon juice before cooking.
- For a healthier option, you can bake the potatoes instead of frying them.
By following these steps, you’ll create a delectable Surf and Turf meal that is sure to impress your family and friends. With crispy potatoes, perfectly cooked beef fillets, and succulent shrimps, this dish is a feast for both the eyes and the palate. Enjoy the luxurious combination of flavors and textures!
