# What you'll need:
→ Steak
01 - 4 boneless ribeye or sirloin steaks, approximately 8 oz each, at room temperature
02 - 1 tbsp olive oil
03 - 1½ tsp kosher salt
04 - 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
→ Garlic Butter
05 - 7 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
06 - 3 cloves garlic, finely minced
07 - 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
08 - 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves
09 - 1 tsp lemon juice
10 - ½ tsp salt
→ Fries
11 - 1¾ lbs russet potatoes, peeled and cut into fries
12 - 3 tbsp vegetable oil
13 - ½ tsp salt
14 - ¼ tsp black pepper
# Method:
01 - Preheat the oven to 425°F. Place a wire rack over a baking sheet to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
02 - Toss the cut potatoes with vegetable oil, salt, and black pepper. Arrange in a single layer on the wire rack. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, turning halfway through until golden brown and crisp.
03 - Combine softened butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, thyme leaves, lemon juice, and salt in a bowl. Mix thoroughly and chill in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to meld flavors.
04 - Pat steaks dry using paper towels. Rub evenly with olive oil, kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper.
05 - Heat a heavy skillet or cast iron pan over high heat until very hot. Sear steaks for 2 to 3 minutes on each side for medium-rare or cook to your preferred doneness.
06 - Transfer steaks to a plate and top each with a generous spoonful of the prepared garlic butter. Allow them to rest for 5 minutes to redistribute juices.
07 - Plate steaks alongside the crisp golden fries. Optionally, serve with extra garlic herb butter to enhance flavor.
