Best Rib Eye Steaks With Thyme Shallot Butter Paprika Potatoes And Asparagus Recipes

RIBEYE WITH MASHED POTATOES AND MUSHROOM SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Set a wire cooling rack inside a sheet pan.
• Remove the steak from the fridge and bring to room temperature, about 45 minutes.
• Mix together the garlic powder, onion powder, salt and cayenne in a small bowl. Sprinkle the entire steak with the rub on both sides, adding more salt if necessary.
• Add 2 tablespoons olive oil to a large cast-iron skillet and heat over medium high. When the skillet is lightly smoking, sear the steak until well browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side. While searing, use a spoon to baste the steak with the oil from the pan. Turn off the heat and place the garlic halves cut-side down in the skillet and sprinkle the thyme sprigs around the steak. Transfer the skillet to the oven to finish cooking until the internal temperature reaches 135 degrees F when measured with an instant-read thermometer not touching bone, about 8 minutes. Remove the steak and garlic halves to the cooling rack to rest for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring the potatoes and remaining 4 garlic cloves to a boil in a medium pot of heavily salted water. Reduce to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are fork tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain the potatoes and return them to the empty pot.
• Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and coat with olive oil. Add the shallots and sweat until soft, about 3 minutes. Add the sliced mushrooms and a pinch of salt. Continue cooking, tossing occasionally to ensure that the mushrooms do not stick to the skillet, until the mushrooms are tender and browned, about 10 minutes. Add the red wine and simmer until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Stir in the demi-glace and reduce until the mixture is thick, saucy and coats the back of a spoon, about 4 minutes.
• Using an electric hand mixer, beat the potatoes until smooth. Add 2 pats of butter and a splash of the hot heavy cream. Continue mixing. Repeat, adding more butter and cream 2 more times and finishing with a pinch of salt.
• Cut the bone off the steak and slice the meat on the bias, keeping the slices together (reserve the bone). Fan the steak slices on a serving plate and garnish with the bone and the roasted garlic halves. Spoon the mushroom sauce around the edge of the steak and garnish the steak with chives. Serve with a small ramekin of extra sauce. Serve the mashed potatoes in a separate bowl garnished with a small pat of butter and more chives.

RIB-EYE STEAK AND POTATOES FOR TWO

Steps:

• Season steak generously with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with sliced garlic and rosemary and set aside to marinate, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Heat oven to 450 degrees. Meanwhile, bring a pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add potatoes and cook at a brisk simmer until just done, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain and keep warm.
• Heat a cast-iron or other heavy skillet over high heat. Remove and discard sliced garlic from steak. (If left on, it will burn in the skillet.)
• When pan is hot, put in the steak and let brown well on one side, 4 to 5 minutes. Wait until steak forms a crust and comes away cleanly from the bottom to move it.
• Flip steak and transfer pan to oven, uncovered. Roast until juices begin to rise on surface of steak (you will see the droplets) and internal temperature is 120 degrees, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove steak from pan and let rest, tented with foil, for 5 to 10 minutes. (Residual heat will continue to cook the meat to medium-rare as it rests.) Warm a serving bowl for the potatoes and plates for the steak.
• Melt butter in a wide skillet over medium-high heat. Add potatoes and toss to coat and heat through. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add minced garlic and cook, stirring, until softened but not browned, 1 minute or less. Gently stir in parsley and lemon zest and transfer to serving bowl.
• Cutting on a slight diagonal, slice steak into 1/2-inch slices, then transfer to plates. If using, place a handful of greens next to the steak. Serve immediately, passing potatoes at the table.

RIB-EYE STEAK

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to high heat.
• Place rib-eye steaks on a large platter and season with rub on all sides. Transfer seasoned steaks to the hot grill, and cook for 4 to 6 minutes on each side for medium-rare, longer if desired. Remove steaks and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
• In a small bowl, combine all ingredients, to taste. Adjust the ratio of spices to your preference.

PAN-FRIED RIB-EYE STEAK

Steps:

• Up to 8 hrs before cooking, pat the steaks dry with kitchen paper and season with salt and pepper. Heat the oil over a high flame in a heavy-based frying pan that will comfortably fit both steaks. When the oil is shimmering, turn the heat down to medium-high and add the butter. Once it's sizzling, carefully lay the steaks in the pan, tucking the garlic and herbs in at the sides.
• Stand over the steaks with a pair of tongs, searing and turning them every 30 seconds to 1 min so they get a nice brown crust. As a rough guide, each steak will take 4 mins in total for rare, 5-6 mins in total for medium and 8-10 mins for well done. If you have a digital cooking thermometer, the temperatures you're looking for in middle of the steak are 50C for rare, 60C for medium and 70C for well done. Leave the steaks to rest for at least 5 mins. While the steaks are resting, you can make a classic red wine sauce to go with them.

GRILLED RIB-EYED STEAKS WITH BéARNAISE BUTTER

Steps:

• On a small plate with a fork blend all ingredients together well and transfer to a sheet of wax paper. Using wax paper as an aid, shape butter into a 4-inch-long log and wrap. Chill butter 1 hour long, or until firm. Bèarnaise butter may be made 5 days ahead and kept chilled, wrapped tightly.
• Prepare grill.
• Bring steaks to room temperature and rub lightly with oil. Season steaks with salt and pepper and grill on a rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals 4 to 5 minutes on each side for medium-rare meat. (Alternatively, steaks may be grilled in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.)
• Serve steaks topped with slices of bèarnaise butter.

GRILLED GRASS-FED RIB-EYE STEAKS WITH BALSAMIC-CAPER VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Simmer vinegar in small pan over medium heat until reduced to 1/4 cup, about 6 minutes. Add shallots, 1/4 cup oil, and crushed red pepper; return to simmer. Remove from heat; whisk in parsley, capers, and thyme. Season vinaigrette with salt and pepper.
• Rub both sides of steaks with oil and garlic. Mix paprika, 2 teaspoons coarse salt, and 1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper in small bowl. Sprinkle on both sides of steaks. Let stand at least 15 minutes and up to 1 hour.
• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Brush grill rack with oil to coat. Grill steaks until cooked to desired doneness, about 3 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer steaks to plates. Spoon vinaigrette over.
