I also chose to add carrots and mushrooms along with the potatoes to add color, texture, and a little sweetness. I think this was a good call because it was delicious!
I think the best thing about this meal is the vibrant citrus-soy flavor you get from the lemon, soy sauce, orange juice, and ginger. The flavor is very tasty and makes the meal feel light, even though it’s satisfying like a big plate of steak and potatoes. Perfect!

A quick tip: try popping the steak in the freezer for about 5-10 minutes before slicing. This will make the steak much easier to slice than when it’s fully thawed.
