Start by preparing the onions. Peel and slice the onions into thin rings.
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat.
Add the sliced onions to the skillet, stirring occasionally.
Cook the onions for about 20 minutes, or until they become soft and golden brown, being careful not to burn them.
Once the onions are caramelized, add 1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar to the skillet to deglaze, scraping up any bits stuck to the bottom.
Remove the caramelized onions from the skillet and set aside.
While the onions are cooking, prepare the steak. Season the beef steaks with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder evenly on both sides.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Lightly brush the grates with olive oil to prevent sticking.
Grill the steaks for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach the desired level of doneness.
Remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Serve the grilled steaks topped with a generous portion of caramelized onions.
Garnish with fresh thyme if desired and serve immediately.
