Hasselback Steak

Welcome to Foodie Friday! I’m linking up with Annmarie from the Fit Foodie Mama, Esther from Chocolate Runner Girl + Jess from Hello To Fit to create awesome healthy recipes each week! This week’s theme is…Recipe Adaptations!

Well, this recipe is actually from back when Trish came to visit me in West Virginia! We spent a little over a day in Asheville and went back to Lewisburg to explore town/basically go on a food tour. We also went to explore the Lost World Caverns and went hiking on the Greenbrier River Trail!

We decided to cook dinner the evening before she left, and she said she’d seen a recipe for Hasselback Steak on Buzzfeed, so off we went for the ingredients!

Do you recognize the baked eggs in the background?!

We started off at the Lewisburg Farmers’ Market and got 2 sirloin steaks for ~$10 from Swift Level Farm. Their cows are grass-fed, free of antibiotics + hormone implants, and they live pretty happy + peaceful lives in the pastures. The lady advised us to cut across the grain since we were using sirloin steaks, and told us to keep them posted on how our cooking adventures went!

Next up, we visited Bella The Corner Gourmet (aka home to all the things I want for my future kitchen). The lady there hooked us up with some Boursin cheese with shallots + chives (since the original recipe called for that anyway!) and cut us a piece of fresh Parmesan, advising us to keep the rind to make soup!

She told us to keep her posted on how our kitchen adventures turned out as well! :] Gotta love small towns! We especially wanted this recipe to turn out well because for once, we had people other than ourselves who were at least somewhat invested in its success.

Thankfully, it turned out well–amazingly well! We like our steaks to be rare (Trish) + medium rare (me), so please excuse the redness if that’s not up your alley. Just keep it in the oven longer if you prefer something less rare!
