Balsamic & Fig Rib-Eye Steak

Dice potatoes into ½-inch pieces. Peel and mince or grate garlic. Trim and halve Brussels sprouts lengthwise. Strip rosemary leaves from stems; mince leaves until you have 1 tsp (2 tsp for 4 servings). Halve, peel, and mince shallot until you have 2 TBSP (3 TBSP for 4).

Place potatoes in a medium pot with enough salted water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, 15-20 minutes.

Reserve ½ cup potato cooking liquid, then drain.

Melt 2 TBSP butter (4 TBSP for 4 servings) in empty pot used for potatoes over medium heat. Add garlic; cook until fragrant, 30 seconds.

Add drained potatoes and sour cream; mash until smooth, adding splashes of reserved potato cooking liquid as needed. Season with salt and pepper. Top with Parmesan.

While potatoes cook, heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large, preferably nonstick, pan over medium-high heat. Add panko; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until golden brown, 3-5 minutes.

Turn off heat; transfer to a medium bowl. Wipe out pan.

Toss Brussels sprouts on sheet used for crostini with a large drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast on top rack until browned and crispy, 15-20 minutes.

Carefully transfer to bowl with toasted panko; toss to combine. Season with half the minced rosemary, salt, and pepper.

While Brussels sprouts roast, pat steak* dry with paper towels; season all over with salt and pepper.

Heat a large drizzle of oil in pan used for panko over medium-high heat. Add steak and cook to desired doneness, 4-7 minutes per side.

Turn off heat. Transfer steak to a cutting board and let rest for at least 5 minutes. Wipe out pan.
