Method
- Preheat the oven to 200 fan. Pop the chips into a bowl of water and leave for 10 minutes. Drain and pat dry. Place onto a baking sheet and toss with the oil, garlic powder, dried oregano, chilli flakes and a good pinch of salt and pepper. Spread out evenly and roast for 40-45 minutes, turning halfway, until super crispy. Transfer to a warm serving plate and crumble over the feta.
- Meanwhile, heat a non-stick frying pan over a high heat until super-hot. Rub the oil over the steaks and season well. Pop into the pan and sear for 2 minute on each side. Then give the steak another 1 minute a side, adding the the butter, garlic and rosemary for the last minute and basting continuously. Remove from the pan and rest for 5 minutes covered with foil on a warm plate. This will give you a beautiful medium rare finish.
- Pour the wine into the pan and cook for 1 minute or until the alcohol has evaporated. Turn off the heat and add the cream, vinegar and a good pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well. Pour any resting juices into the sauce to max out the flavour.
- Mix the salad together and slice up steak. Serve everything with the sauce in a jug so you can pour as much as you like over your steak.
