Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 4 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary (optional)
- 2 teaspoons Kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 pieces Boneless ribeye steaks (or preferred cut)
- 2 tablespoons Avocado oil (or vegetable oil for searing)
- 2 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash and peel the potatoes, then slice them into 1/4-inch thick sticks to create frites (French-style fries).
Place the potato sticks in a large bowl, cover with cold water, and let them soak for 15 minutes. This removes excess starch and helps create crispier fries.
Drain the potatoes and pat them dry thoroughly with a clean kitchen towel.
Spread the potato sticks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, and toss to coat evenly. Sprinkle chopped rosemary if desired.
Arrange the fries in a single layer and bake them in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
While the fries are baking, season both sides of the steaks generously with the remaining kosher salt and black pepper.
Heat a cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pan over high heat. Once hot, add 2 tablespoons of avocado oil.
Sear the steaks for 3-4 minutes on each side until a golden crust forms. For medium-rare, cook until the internal temperature reaches 130°F (54°C). Adjust cooking time based on your preferred doneness.
Add the minced garlic to the pan during the last minute of cooking, stirring to ensure it doesn’t burn. Remove steaks from the pan and let them rest, loosely covered with foil, for 5-7 minutes.
Once the fries are done, remove them from the oven and sprinkle with additional salt if needed.
Plate the steak alongside the fries. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve immediately.
