Grilled Steak And Smoked Potatoes Recipe

Wash and dry the potatoes. Rub with olive oil and lightly sprinkle with salt. Place on a lightly greased baking sheet and bake in a preheated 350-degree F oven until just tender, approximately 25 minutes.

Soak a handful of hickory chips in water for at least 30 minutes. Heat a gas or charcoal grill until hot. Drain the hickory chips and carefully place on the hot coals. When they begin to smoke, place the potatoes directly on the grill. Cover the grill and smoke the potatoes for 2 or 3 minutes. Set aside, keeping them warm.

Meanwhile, bring the steak to room temperature. Sprinkle with salt, place on the grill and cook to desired doneness.

Remove from the grill, rub with butter and let rest for 2 minutes. Divide the soy sauce between dinner plates. Cut the steak in serving pieces (one per plate) and arrange on the soy sauce with the potatoes. Garnish with the buttery steak drippings and the wasabi. Serve immediately.
