Ribeye Steak with French Onions and French Fries

INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Prepare the French Fries:

Peel and cut the potatoes into fries. Soak them in cold water for 30 minutes to remove excess starch.
Drain and pat dry with a clean towel.
Heat oil in a deep fryer or pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry the potatoes in batches for 4-5 minutes until lightly golden. Remove and drain.
Increase the oil temperature to 375°F (190°C) and fry again for 2-3 minutes until crisp and golden brown. Sprinkle with salt and keep warm.
2. Caramelize the Onions:

In a skillet, melt butter with olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced onions, sugar, and salt.
Cook, stirring often, for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and caramelized.
Deglaze the pan with beef broth and white wine, scraping up any browned bits. Let simmer for 2-3 minutes, then set aside.
3. Cook the Ribeye Steak:

Pat the steaks dry and season generously with salt and black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add the steaks and sear for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness.
Add garlic, thyme, and butter to the pan. Spoon the melted butter over the steaks for an additional minute. Remove the steaks and let rest for 5 minutes.
4. Assemble and Serve:

Top the steaks with caramelized French onions. Serve alongside crispy French fries and garnish with parsley if desired.
This Ribeye Steak with French Onions and French Fries is a hearty and indulgent meal, perfect for any steak lover craving a touch of French-inspired comfort.
