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!
