Beef

Whiskey Glaze

Pickled Fresno Chili

Method

Whiskey Glaze

  1. 1

    Prepare the Whiskey Glaze

    In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the whiskey, brown sugar, soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and set aside.

Pickled Fresno Chili

  1. 2

    Pickle the Fresno Chilis

    In a small saucepan, combine white vinegar, water, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil, add the sliced Fresno chili peppers, and remove from heat. Allow to cool to room temperature, then transfer to a jar and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.

Crispy Onion Strings

  1. 3

    Prepare the Onion Strings

    Soak the thinly sliced onion in buttermilk for at least 30 minutes. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, cornstarch, salt, and black pepper. Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or heavy pot to 375°F (190°C). Dredge the soaked onion slices in the flour mixture and fry in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Drain on paper towels and set aside.

Cooking the Ribeye

  1. 4

    Cook the Prime Ribeye

    Preheat your grill or skillet over high heat. Season the ribeye steak with salt and pepper. Sear the steak for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, basting with the whiskey glaze during the last minute of cooking. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Assembly

  1. 5

    Assemble the Dish

    Slice the rested ribeye steak and place it on a serving platter. Top with crispy onion strings and pickled Fresno chilis. Drizzle additional whiskey glaze over the top if desired. Serve immediately.
