Ingredients:
For the Ribeye Steak:
2 ribeye steaks (1-inch thick)
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp butter
Salt and pepper to taste
2 garlic cloves, smashed
2 sprigs fresh thyme or rosemary
For the Caramelized Onions:
2 large onions, thinly sliced
2 tbsp butter
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp sugar (optional, for sweetness)
Salt and pepper to taste
For the Crispy Fries:
4 large russet potatoes, cut into fries
2 tbsp olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
Caramelize the Onions:
Heat butter and olive oil in a large pan over medium heat.
Add the sliced onions and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and sugar (if using).
Cook, stirring occasionally, for 20-25 minutes until the onions are golden and caramelized. Set aside.
Make the Crispy Fries:
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Toss the cut potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Spread them on a baking sheet in a single layer and bake for 30-35 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy.
Cook the Ribeye Steaks:
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add steaks and cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer for your desired doneness.
Add butter, garlic, and thyme during the last 2 minutes of cooking, basting the steak with the melted butter.
Let the steaks rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Assemble:
Serve the ribeye steaks topped with caramelized onions, alongside the crispy fries.
Enjoy your delicious meal!
