Easy Homemade Steak and Shrimp

INGREDIENTS:

2 steaks (such as ribeye or filet mignon)

1 pound of large shrimp, peeled and deveined

Salt and pepper, to taste

Olive oil

Garlic powder

Fresh herbs (such as rosemary or thyme) for garnish

DIRECTIONS:

For the Steak:

Preheat your grill or skillet to high heat.

Season the steaks generously with salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of garlic powder.

Drizzle olive oil over the steaks and rub to coat evenly.

Place the steaks on the grill or skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust cooking time to your desired level of doneness.

Use a meat thermometer to ensure the steaks reach an internal temperature of 135°F for medium-rare, 145°F for medium, or 160°F for well-done.

Once cooked to your liking, remove the steaks from the heat and let them rest for a few minutes before slicing.

For the Shrimp:

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.

Thread the shrimp onto skewers, leaving a small space between each shrimp.

Season the shrimp with salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of garlic powder.

Brush olive oil over the shrimp skewers.

Grill the shrimp over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are pink and opaque.

Remove the shrimp from the grill and garnish with freshly chopped herbs.
