Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into evenly sized fries, about 1/4 inch thick.
In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato fries with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, and 1 teaspoon of sea salt. Ensure each fry is evenly coated.
Spread the sweet potato fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until crispy and golden brown.
While the fries are baking, bring the steaks to room temperature. Pat them dry with a paper towel, then season both sides with the remaining 1 teaspoon of sea salt and black pepper.
Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the pan and heat until shimmering.
Place the steaks in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until they reach your desired doneness. During the last minute of cooking, add the ghee and rosemary sprig to the skillet, spooning the melted ghee over the steaks for added flavor.
Remove the steaks from the skillet and allow them to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve the steaks alongside the crispy sweet potato fries. Enjoy your Paleo-friendly steak frites!
