Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 8-ounce Ribeye steaks
- 1 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 large Yellow onions
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Balsamic vinegar (optional)
Instructions
Remove the ribeye steaks from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 20-30 minutes prior to cooking. This helps them cook more evenly.
Season both sides of the steaks liberally with salt and pepper. Set aside.
Slice the yellow onions into thin rings. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Once the butter is melted and begins to slightly bubble, add the sliced onions to the skillet.
Cook the onions, stirring often, until they have softened and turned a golden brown color. This may take approximately 25-30 minutes. If the onions start to stick to the pan, add a splash of water to deglaze.
If desired, add 1 teaspoon of balsamic vinegar during the final 5 minutes of cooking for an additional layer of flavor.
Preheat your grill to high heat. Brush the grill grates with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to prevent sticking.
Place the steaks onto the hot grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare steaks, or longer if you prefer a different level of doneness.
Remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest for about 5-10 minutes. Resting allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a juicier steak.
Plate the steaks and top them generously with the caramelized onions.
Serve immediately and enjoy your soy-free grilled steak with caramelized onions.
