Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces steak (ribeye, sirloin, or strip)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 large yellow onion
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
Season the steaks with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter.
Once the butter has melted and the skillet is hot, sear the steaks for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare (cook longer for your desired doneness). Remove the steaks from the skillet, cover with foil, and let them rest.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter.
Thinly slice the onions and add them to the skillet. Cook them for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are caramelized and soft.
Sprinkle the flour over the onions and stir well to combine, cooking for 1-2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.
Gradually pour in the beef broth while whisking to avoid lumps. Cook for 3-5 minutes, allowing the gravy to thicken.
Stir in the Worcestershire sauce and thyme (if using), then taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper as needed.
Return the steaks and any collected juices to the skillet, allowing them to warm through in the onion gravy for 2-3 minutes.
Serve the steaks hot, topped with the onion gravy. Enjoy with mashed potatoes or crusty bread for a complete meal.
