Steak

Fries

Optional Garnish

Method

Preparing the Fries

  1. 1

    Cutting the Potatoes

    Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Soaking

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

  3. 3

    Frying the Potatoes

    Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C). Drain and dry the potatoes thoroughly, then fry them in batches until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels, seasoning with salt while still hot.

Cooking the Steak

  1. 4

    Preparing the Steak

    Pat the ribeye steaks dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.

  2. 5

    Searing the Steak

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the steaks to the skillet and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness. Add fresh thyme during the last minute of cooking.

  3. 6

    Resting the Steak

    Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Serving

  1. 7

    Plating the Dish

    Slice the steak against the grain and serve alongside the fries. Drizzle with melted butter and sprinkle with fresh parsley if desired.
