Steak and potatoes just got dressed up in their Sunday (or weeknight dinner) best. Rather than sticking with plain ol’ spuds, we’re introducing sweet potatoes (for a bit of a sugar rush). Then the steak is drizzled in a deluxe pan sauce, which has a bit of herby sophistication for the adults but also kid-friendly, gravy-like flavor. The green beans on the side have a sprinkle of almonds (or as the French call it, amandine). Ooh la la indeed.

Wash and dry all produce. Adjust rack to middle position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Cut sweet potatoes into ½-inch cubes. Strip thyme leaves from stems; discard stems. Finely chop leaves.
Toss sweet potatoes on a baking sheet with half the thyme and a large drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Roast in oven until tender and crisped, about 25 minutes total, tossing halfway through.
After the sweet potatoes have roasted 12 minutes, spread out green beans on another baking sheet and toss with a large drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Roast in oven until green beans are tender and lightly crisped, about 12 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat a large drizzle of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Season steak all over with salt and pepper. Add to pan and cook to desired doneness, 4-7 minutes per side. Remove from pan and let rest 5 minutes.
Reduce heat under same pan to medium low. Stir in demi-glace, ⅓ cup water, and remaining thyme, scraping up any browned bits from bottom. Increase heat to medium-high and let simmer until thickened, 1-2 minutes. (TIP: Add a splash or two of water if sauce gets too thick.) Remove pan from heat and add 1 TBSP butter, stirring or swirling pan to melt. Season with salt and pepper.
Sprinkle almonds over green beans and sweet potatoes on baking sheets. Thinly slice steak against the grain. Divide green beans, sweet potatoes, and steak between plates. Drizzle with sauce and serve.
