Ingredients

• 2 ribeye steaks
• 2 large onions, thinly sliced
• 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp sugar
• 1 tsp balsamic vinegar
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• Fresh thyme or parsley for garnish

Preparation Method

Season the ribeye steaks generously with salt and pepper on both sides and let them rest at room temperature for 30 minutes. This step helps the steaks cook evenly and ensures they stay juicy and tender.

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to caramelize, which takes about 15-20 minutes. Add the sugar and balsamic vinegar during the last 5 minutes of cooking to enhance the sweetness and depth of flavor. Once caramelized, remove the onions from the skillet and set them aside.

In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and butter. Sauté the mushrooms with the minced garlic for 5-7 minutes, until golden brown and tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove the mushrooms from the skillet and set them aside.

Turn up the heat to medium-high and sear the ribeye steaks in the same skillet for about 3-4 minutes per side for a perfect medium-rare, or cook them longer for your desired doneness. Let the steaks rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute for maximum flavor and tenderness.

Top each steak with the caramelized onions and sautéed mushrooms. Garnish with fresh thyme or parsley for a touch of freshness and serve hot. Pair it with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad for a complete and satisfying meal.
