My boyfriend will be late tonight from work, so I want to cook him a meal. I have some steaks that are thawing right now. Any creative ideas? We always have steak and potatoes, so I would like to do something else. I thank you in advance for you suggestions!

of course he's at work! He's manager, he's closing, and I trust him. Thanks for all the suggestions so far. But he is just gonna bring something home since its almost 3am. Maybe tomorrow night.

Steaks in wine:
Two cups red wine boiled to reduction until it is like syrup
Brown the steaks in butter take out of the pan
If you have mushrooms brown them in the butter with one clove chopped garlic -
Put a splash of stock or red wine to deglaze the pan and stir add the wine syrup (can add 2 tables spoons heavy cream and 1 tablespoon brandy with some green brined peppercorns or not but this addition of these ingredients makes it really special) - boil 3 to 5 minutes - Add the steaks and turn off the heat. Spoon the sauce on to the plate and top the steak with some mushrooms; can put some sauce on the top of the steak - serve the rest at table in a gravy dish.
Serve with noodles or mashed potatoes or pan fries.

Spread Dijon (or any kind will do) mustard on the steaks. Season with salt and pepper.
Broil or grill as usual.
Bake those potatoes, and make them into twice baked potatoes: scoop out the white meaty portion of the potato, mix with some shredded cheddar cheese, snipped chives, crumbled bacon, and sour cream. Stuff back into the potato shells, and bake again.
Serve with a tossed green salad, some good red wine, and ENJOY!

When you've got potatoes, why do anything else? Why not make up a gravy, with fried mushrooms & onions in it, and put it over your steak & baked potato? You can put the potato in the microwave (poke a knife in the top first) and cover it with a plastic lid. Put it in for 15 minutes on high power. By the time the microwave dings, your steak should be ready, especially if you fried the onions & mushrooms with your steak. Very yummy! <*)))><
