Steak and Mushrooms Foil Packs
Easy, flavor-packed steak foil packs make the best no-fuss dinners. Steak and mushrooms are a match made in grilling heaven. When cooked together in foil, the flavors meld perfectly, resulting in a juicy steak infused with the earthy taste of mushrooms. This method also ensures that the juices are retained, giving you a moist and flavorful dish.
What could be better than a super easy meal with minimal cleanup? WELL, that is exactly what you get with Foil Pack dinners. And, considering the popularity of my Garlic Herb Steak and Potato Foil Packs, you probably knew this. This recipe is also great for those counting carbs – with only 4 grams net carbs, these steak foil packets are a delicious and low-carb meal. P.S. In some parts, they are also referred to as HOBO Packets. But, no matter what they are called, and what time of the year it is, foil pack dinners are my favorite way to cook. Minimal prep, minimal clean-up, and we get to EAT really good food!
INGREDIENTS
- ▢1 pound top sirloin steak, cut into 2-inch cubes
- ▢8 ounces sliced mushrooms
- ▢3 cloves garlic, minced
- ▢⅓ cup low sodium soy sauce
- ▢¼ cup olive oil
- ▢1 teaspoon dried basil
- ▢1 teaspoon dried thyme
- ▢salt and fresh ground black pepper, to taste
- ▢crushed red pepper flakes, for garnish
- ▢sliced green onions, for garnish
INSTRUCTIONS
- In a large bowl, combine the steak pieces, mushrooms, garlic, soy sauce, olive oil, basil, thyme, salt and pepper. Cover and set in the fridge for 15 to 30 minutes.
- Then, take the bowl from the fridge and set it on the counter for 15 minutes.
- Cut out 4 large heavy-duty foil sheets. If you don’t have heavy-duty foil, you can just double up on regular foil.
- Divide the steak and mushrooms between the sheets of foil. Wrap the foils tightly around the steak and mushrooms and seal them together.
Grill Method
- Preheat the grill to HIGH.
- Transfer the foil packets to the grill and grill over high heat for 8 to 10 minutes per side, adjusting the time based on your preferred steak doneness. Use an Instant Read Meat Thermometer to poke through the foils and check on the steak’s temperature.
- Remove from the grill and let stand for a couple of minutes. Carefully open up the foils, garnish with crushed red pepper flakes and green onions, then serve.
Oven Method
- Preheat the oven to 425˚F.
- Wrap foils tightly around the steak and mushrooms and seal it all together.
- Cook for 18 to 20 minutes or until the internal temperature of the steak reaches about 130˚F to 140˚F. Use an Instant Read Thermometer to check for doneness. Just poke through the foil with the thermometer and set it into one of the steak pieces.
- If you want a nice char on the steak, open up the packets the last 2 minutes of cooking and pop them under the broiler for a minute.
- Garnish with crushed red pepper and green onions, then serve.
