Garlic Butter

Method

Steak Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Remove the ribeye steaks from the fridge and let them come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. This helps them cook evenly.

  2. 2

    Season the Steak

    Season both sides of the steaks with salt and black pepper generously.

  3. 3

    Cook the Steak

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the steaks in the skillet and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Adjust time for desired doneness.

  4. 4

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a plate for 5-10 minutes.

Garlic Butter Preparation

  1. 5

    Make Garlic Butter

    In a small bowl, combine softened unsalted butter, minced garlic cloves, chopped fresh parsley, and a pinch of salt. Mix thoroughly until well combined.

  2. 6

    Serve the Butter

    Spoon the garlic butter over the rested steaks just before serving.

Fries Preparation

  1. 7

    Cut the Potatoes

    Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into thin strips (about 1/4 inch thick) to make fries.

  2. 8

    Soak the Fries

    Soak the cut potatoes in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch. Drain and pat dry.

  3. 9

    Heat the Oil

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

  4. 10

    Fry the Potatoes

    Fry the potatoes in batches, cooking until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes per batch.

  5. 11

    Drain and Season

    Remove fries from oil and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt while still hot.
