Steak

Garlic Butter

Method

Steak Preparation

  1. 1

    Season the Steak

    Generously season both sides of the ribeye steaks with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Grill the Steak

    Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add olive oil to the pan. Once hot, place the seasoned steaks on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes.

Fries Preparation

  1. 3

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel and cut the russet potatoes into thin strips. Rinse in cold water to remove excess starch.

  2. 4

    Fry the Potatoes

    In a large pot, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Fry the potato strips in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with salt immediately.

Garlic Butter Preparation

  1. 5

    Make the Garlic Butter

    In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Stir in chopped parsley and a pinch of salt. Remove from heat.
