Steak

Garlic Butter

Method

Steak

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Remove the ribeye steaks from the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. This ensures even cooking.

  2. 2

    Season the Steaks

    Rub the steaks with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on both sides. Ensure an even coating.

  3. 3

    Grill the Steaks

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Place the steaks on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer for your preferred doneness.

  4. 4

    Rest the Steaks

    Once cooked, remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Fries

  1. 5

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into thin strips to create fries.

  2. 6

    Soak the Fries

    Soak the cut fries in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch, which helps them crisp up.

  3. 7

    Heat the Oil

    In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

  4. 8

    Fry the Potatoes

    Drain and dry the potatoes thoroughly. Fry them in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes per batch.

  5. 9

    Season the Fries

    Remove the fries from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. While still hot, sprinkle with salt.

Garlic Butter

  1. 10

    Prepare the Garlic Butter

    In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Add minced garlic cloves and cook until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.

  2. 11

    Finish the Garlic Butter

    Stir in chopped fresh parsley and lemon juice. Remove from heat and let it sit for a few minutes to infuse the flavors.
