Ingredients

• 2 pieces ribeye steak (or steak of choice)
• 2 medium yellow onion
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 pieces fresh rosemary sprigs
• 2 pieces fresh garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon soy sauce (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let them rest at room temperature for about 20 minutes before cooking. This helps ensure even cooking.

Step 2

Thinly slice the onions and set them aside. Crush the garlic cloves and set them aside as well.

Step 3

Pat the steaks dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides. If desired, brush with a teaspoon of soy sauce for added umami flavor.

Step 4

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

Step 5

Add the steaks to the skillet and sear undisturbed for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer depending on your preferred doneness. Add 1 tablespoon of butter, rosemary sprigs, and crushed garlic to the pan during the last minute of cooking, and baste the steaks with the melted butter using a spoon.

Step 6

Remove the steaks from the skillet and place them on a plate. Tent loosely with foil and let them rest for 5-7 minutes.

Step 7

In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and butter. Reduce the heat to medium and add the sliced onions.

Step 8

Cook the onions, stirring occasionally, for about 8-10 minutes, or until they are soft and golden brown.

Step 9

Serve the steaks topped with the caramelized onions. Optionally, garnish with a sprig of rosemary for presentation. Enjoy your meal!
