Steak

Method

Steak Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Steak

    In a bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture generously over both sides of the ribeye steaks. Let the steaks marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Grill

    While the steaks are marinating, preheat your grill to high heat (about 450-500°F or 232-260°C).

  3. 3

    Grill the Steak

    Once the grill is hot, place the steaks on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adding the fresh rosemary sprigs to the grill for added flavor. Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness (130-135°F or 54-57°C for medium-rare).

  4. 4

    Rest the Steak

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

Fries Preparation

  1. 5

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into thin strips to create fries. Rinse the cut potatoes under cold water to remove excess starch, then pat them dry with paper towels.

  2. 6

    Heat the Oil

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

  3. 7

    Fry the Potatoes

    Once the oil is hot, carefully add the potato strips in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry the potatoes for about 5-7 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove them from the oil and drain on paper towels.

  4. 8

    Season the Fries

    While the fries are still hot, sprinkle them with salt to taste. Serve immediately with the grilled steak.
