Method
 

  1. Choose 2 to 3 sides that balance the main dish, including a fresh or crunchy vegetable, a salad or starchy component, and optionally a sauce or dip.
  2. Start preparing the longest cook time sides first, then finish with the quickest sides or sauces last to ensure everything is at the right temperature.
  3. Plate the steak and chips with the chosen sides; add sauces, dips, or garnishes as relevant just before serving to maximize flavor and texture contrast.

Notes

Add one fresh or tangy side like a salad and keep it separate to prevent heaviness and maintain texture balance on the plate.
