Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Wash and halve the baby potatoes, then toss them in a bowl with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Spread the seasoned potatoes on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden and crispy, flipping halfway through.
  4. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil, season the skirt steak, and sear for about 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare doneness.
  5. Let the steak rest before slicing against the grain.
  6. In a large bowl, combine the fresh arugula with balsamic vinegar and toss gently.
  7. Layer the arugula on plates, followed by crispy potatoes, and top with sliced steak. Drizzle with more balsamic if desired.
  8. Garnish with fresh herbs for added flavor.
