An easy, juicy, no-mess meal you can make in the oven, on the grill, or over a campfire.
🛒 Ingredients (Serves 2–3)

2️⃣ Season steak with oil/butter, garlic powder, paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper.
3️⃣ Layer steak and onions in the center of a large sheet of heavy-duty foil.
4️⃣ Seal tightly into a packet (fold edges well to trap steam).
5️⃣ Bake 20–30 minutes, depending on steak thickness and preferred doneness.
For more browning: Open the foil for the last 5 minutes.
