Preparation

Step 1

1. Pat beef dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Combine oil, garlic, and 1/2 tsp salt in small bowl. Microwave until garlic is golden brown, about 2 minutes. Stir in rosemary.

2. Thread potatoes onto skewers. Place in single layer on large plate, brush all over with 1/4 cup oil mixture, and season liberally with salt and pepper. Microwave until potatoes offer slight resistance when pierced with tip of paring knife, flipping halfway through microwaving, about 8 minutes.

3. Grill beef over hotter side of 2 level fire, until well browned all over and temperatore registers 130 degrees, about 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to platter, brush with 2 Tbsp of oil mixture and tent with foil. Allow to rest while potatoes cook.

4. Meanwhile, grill potatoes, covered, over hotter part of grill until marked on both sides, about 2 minutes per side. Move potatoes to cooler part of grill and continue to cook, covered, until tender, 5 to 8 minutes longer. Transfer to platter with beef, brush with remaining oil mixture and sprinkle with chives.
