Herb Butter

Method

Steak

1

Prepare the Steak

Remove the ribeye steaks from the refrigerator and allow them to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking.

2

Season the Steak

Rub each steak with olive oil and season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.

3

Grill the Steak

Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Grill the steaks for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until they reach your desired doneness. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Fries

4

Prepare the Potatoes

Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick. Rinse the fries in cold water to remove excess starch, then pat them dry with a paper towel.

5

Fry the Potatoes

In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Fry the potatoes in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pot, for about 4-5 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Remove the fries and drain on paper towels, then sprinkle with salt.

Herb Butter

6

Make the Herb Butter

In a small bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter, chopped parsley, chopped chives, minced garlic, and lemon juice. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

7

Serve the Herb Butter

Place a dollop of the herb butter on top of each grilled steak just before serving. It will melt and create a delicious sauce.
