Instructions
Arrange the spinach across the surface of a serving platter and set it aside.
Heat the olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and fry the potato slices until crisp on both sides.
Remove them from the hot pan and arrange them in a single layer on top of the raw spinach.
Salt and pepper the steak, and wipe out the pan. Return it to the stovetop over high heat, and pan-sear the steak until browned on the outside and medium rare within, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
Remove the steak from the pan and lay it over the potatoes and spinach to rest and to further wilt the spinach.
Turn off the heat. Immediately pour the red wine into the hot pan and scrape any particles sticking to the pan to incorporate them.
Pour this sauce over the meat along with a drizzle of olive oil.
Serve at once, dividing the steak at the table.
Recommended wine: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir
Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Pinot Noir are my top picks for Steak. After all, beef and red wine are a classic combination. Generally, leaner steaks go well with light or medium-bodied reds, such as pinot noir or merlot, while fattier steaks can handle a bold red, such as cabernet sauvingnon. One wine you could try is Matanzas Creek Alexander Valley Merlot. It has 4.3 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 28 dollars.

Matanzas Creek Alexander Valley Merlot
A medium purple color. Flavors of satsuma plum, dark chocolate covered raspberries, and allspice aromas primarily. On the palate, this is a classic Merlot with good concentration. It is savory and medium bodied with velvety tannins. Homemade cherry pie tart and sandal wood aromas are perceived easily when tasting.
