Steak

Garlic Butter

Method

Steak

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Season the ribeye steaks with salt and black pepper on both sides. Allow them to sit at room temperature for about 20-30 minutes before cooking.

  2. 2

    Cook the Steak

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steaks and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Fries

  1. 3

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into thin strips (about 1/4 inch thick). Soak the cut potatoes in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

  2. 4

    Fry the Potatoes

    In a large pot, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Drain and dry the potatoes thoroughly with a clean kitchen towel. Fry the potatoes in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt while still hot.

Garlic Butter

  1. 5

    Make the Garlic Butter

    In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Stir in chopped parsley and lemon juice, mixing well. Keep warm until ready to serve.
