Steak

French Fries

Garlic Herb Butter

Method

Preparing the Steak

  1. 1

    Seasoning the Steak

    Pat the ribeye steaks dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Cooking the Steak

    Heat olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steaks and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is reached. Remove from the skillet and let rest for 5 minutes.

Making French Fries

  1. 3

    Preparing the Potatoes

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

  2. 4

    Soaking the Fries

    Place the cut potatoes in a bowl of cold water and soak for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

  3. 5

    Frying the Fries

    Heat vegetable oil in a deep pot to 350°F (175°C). Drain and pat the soaked potatoes dry, then fry in batches for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt immediately.

Making Garlic Herb Butter

  1. 6

    Preparing the Butter

    In a small bowl, soften the unsalted butter. Finely mince the garlic cloves and add them along with the chopped parsley and thyme to the butter. Mix until well combined.

  2. 7

    Serving

    Place a generous dollop of the garlic herb butter on top of each steak before serving.
