Instructions
Place steak, 6 Tbsp. olive oil, sliced garlic and parsley in a resealable plastic bag, and rub ingredients into steak.
Let marinate 1 hour at room temperature or overnight in refrigerator.
Preheat oven to 450F. In a large bowl, toss potatoes with remaining 2 Tbsp. olive oil and crushed garlic; season with salt and pepper.
Spread potatoes on an oiled baking sheet and roast until golden brown and crisp, about 20 minutes, turning occasionally with a metal spatula.
Remove steak from marinade, rubbing off any garlic pieces. Season with salt and pepper.
Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. When hot, brush with oil, add steak and cook for about 7 minutes. Turn and cook for 7 minutes on other side for medium-rare.
Transfer steak to a plate, tent with foil to keep warm and let rest for 10 minutes.
Thinly slice steak and serve with potatoes and a green vegetable.
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. The Director's Merlot with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 21 dollars per bottle.

Director's Merlot
Our 2014 Director's Merlot offers lushness and a round, full palate. Its fragrance demonstrates red and black fruit with hints of anise and spiced wood. Juicy upon entry, the wine broadens and becomes velvety on the palate with flavors of plum, loganberry and black cherry accentuated by subtle spice notes of espresso bean and toasted vanilla. Medium tannins support the body of this wine, offering sophistication in its finish. Pairs nicely with brisket, grilled pork chops and linguine with pesto.
