PAN-SEARED RIB-EYE STEAK WITH BéARNAISE (ENTRECôTE BéARNAISE)

Steps:

• Cook steaks:
• Halve steaks crosswise, then pat dry and sprinkle all over with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper (total).
• Heat a 12-inch heavy ovenproof skillet (not nonstick) over medium heat until hot, then add oil, swirling skillet to coat bottom, and cook steaks 5 minutes per side for medium-rare.
• Transfer steaks to a platter and let stand, loosely covered with foil, 5 minutes.
• Make béarnaise while steaks stand:
• Boil wine, vinegar, shallots, and 1 tablespoon tarragon in a small heavy saucepan until liquid is reduced to 2 tablespoons, then strain through a fine-mesh sieve set into a medium metal bowl, pressing on and then discarding solids.
• Whisk yolks into vinegar mixture, then set bowl over a pan of barely simmering water and cook, whisking constantly, until yolks have thickened slightly (do not scramble).
• Whisk in butter 1 piece at a time, adding each piece before previous one has melted completely. Remove from heat and whisk in lemon juice, remaining tablespoon tarragon, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper (or to taste). Serve steaks with sauce.

SUNNY'S T-BONE STEAK WITH EASY BEARNAISE SAUCE

Steps:

• For the T-bone steaks: Heat a large cast-iron griddle or skillet over medium-high heat. Generously sprinkle both sides of the steaks with salt and pepper.
• Add the oil to the griddle. Add the steaks and cook until nicely browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove from the heat, then tent with foil and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
• For the easy bearnaise sauce: Add the yolks and lemon juice to a blender. Turn on the blender and slowly stream in the melted butter. Once all the butter is incorporated, season with salt and pepper. Remove the sauce to a bowl over a bain marie (hot water) and keep warm. Add the chives, red onion and thyme and stir to combine. Taste and adjust the seasoning with a little more salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and add to a serving bowl.
• Serve the bearnaise sauce over the steaks.

BEARNAISE SAUCE

Steps:

• Place the white wine, white-wine vinegar, shallots, 2 tablespoons tarragon, and the peppercorns in a small saucepan set over medium-high heat. Bring mixture to a boil, and cook until it is reduced to about 2 tablespoons.
• Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Keep warm until ready to use.
• Place egg yolks in a copper or stainless-steel bowl that fits snugly in the top of a medium saucepan. Fill the saucepan with 2 inches of water, and bring to a boil. Whisk the yolks, off the heat, until they become pale. Add wine mixture and salt, and whisk until well combined. Gradually add 1/4 cup boiling water, whisking constantly. Place bowl over the medium saucepan of boiling water; reduce heat to lowest setting. Whisking constantly, cook until whisk leaves a trail in the mixture and sauce begins to hold its shape. Remove from heat.
• Pour the warm, melted butter into a glass measuring cup. Add to yolk mixture, one drop at a time, whisking constantly. After you have added about a tablespoon of the melted butter, you can begin to add it slightly faster, still whisking constantly. Still, be careful: If the butter is added too quickly, the emulsion will be too thin or will "break" (separate).
• Once all of the butter has been added, adjust the seasoning with the lemon juice, and stir in the remaining tarragon. If the bearnaise becomes too thick, you may thin it with a little additional lemon juice or water. If not serving immediately, place pan of sauce over a pot of simmering water that has been removed from heat, or in a warm spot on the stove for up to 1 hour. Alternatively, you may store for up to 3 hours in a clean thermos that has been warmed with hot but not boiling water.
