Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Ribeye steaks (or steak of choice)
- 2 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 3 large Yellow onions, thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Prepared horseradish
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Season the ribeye steaks generously with salt and black pepper on both sides. Set aside at room temperature to allow the seasoning to penetrate while you prepare the onions.
In a large skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter. Once melted, add the thinly sliced onions.
Cook the onions, stirring occasionally, for about 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and caramelized. Sprinkle the onions with 1 teaspoon of granulated sugar about halfway through cooking to enhance their natural sweetness. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together sour cream, mayonnaise, prepared horseradish, and lemon juice. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Heat a clean skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, place the steaks in the pan. Cook for about 3-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust the cooking time according to your preferred level of doneness.
Remove the steaks from the heat and allow them to rest for 5 minutes to retain their juices.
Top each steak with a generous portion of the caramelized onions. Serve with a dollop of creamy horseradish sauce on the side.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
