Rib Eye Steak With Blue Cheese Butter And Walla Walla Onion Rings Recipes

RIB EYE STEAK WITH BLUE CHEESE COMPOUND BUTTER AND CRISPY ONION STRINGS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the compound butter: In a medium bowl, mix together the butter, blue cheese, chives, salt, and pepper until well combined.
• Transfer the butter to a piece of plastic wrap and roll into a log. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until ready to use.
• Make the fried onions: In a shallow bowl, combine the onions and buttermilk and let sit at room temperature for 1 hour.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, paprika, salt, and pepper. Dip the buttermilk-coated onions into the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
• Fill a large skillet with high sides with the canola oil. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 375˚F (190˚C). Once the oil is hot, add the onions in batches and fry for 3 minutes, until golden brown. Transfer the onions to a wire rack to drain and season with salt.
• Generously season the steaks all over with salt and pepper.
• Add the olive oil to a large cast-iron or stainless-steel pan over high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the steaks and cook, without disturbing, until a brown crust forms, about 7 minutes. Flip the steaks and continue to cook for 7 minutes more, until the steak is browned on both sides. Sear the sides of the steak to render any fat. Add the butter and thyme to the pan. Tilt the pan toward you and baste the steaks with the melted butter for 2 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (60°C) for medium rare.
• Serve the steak with the crispy onions and blue cheese compound butter.
• Enjoy!

RIB EYE STEAK WITH ONION BLUE CHEESE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to a high heat or light your outdoor grill.
• Sprinkle the steaks with salt and pepper and smear both sides of the steaks with 1/2 stick of the butter.
• Grill the steaks until medium-rare, 3 to 4 minutes per side, and then remove from the heat and keep warm. (You can also saute them in a skillet over medium-high heat if you prefer.)
• Melt the remaining 1/2 stick of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat, and then saute the onions until golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes. Pour in the cream, a dash of salt and pepper and the Worcestershire sauce. Let it bubble up, then add the blue cheese and stir together to melt, adding more pepper or Worcestershire sauce as you wish.
• Place the steaks on plates and spoon the sauce over the top.
• Take a bite. And the world at long last will make sense.

BLUE CHEESE-AGED RIB-EYE STEAK

Steps:

• For the steaks: On a baking sheet, lay out a sheet of plastic wrap, then unfold a piece of cheesecloth on top. Place the steaks on the cheesecloth. Fold a thin layer of the cheesecloth over the steaks, then top with the blue cheese. Fold over the plastic wrap to secure the cheese on top. Refrigerate the wrapped steaks overnight.
• Let the steaks sit at room temperature for 20 minutes.
• Unwrap the steaks; reserve the blue cheese for the sauce. Pat the steaks dry with paper towels.
• Heat a cast-iron skillet over high heat. Season the steaks with salt and pepper on both sides. Once the skillet is hot, drizzle in the canola oil. Add the steaks and sear for 5 minutes on one side. Flip the steaks and cook for 2 minutes. Lower the heat to medium, then add the butter, thyme, rosemary and garlic. Use a spoon to baste the melted butter over the steaks as they cook. Cook for 3 to 4 more minutes for medium-rare doneness. Let rest on a plate for 5 minutes.
• For the blue cheese sauce: In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the shallots and cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the cream and Worcestershire sauce and cook for 1 minute more. Add the salt, pepper and reserved blue cheese and stir well. Just as the cheese begins to melt, remove from the heat. To serve, spoon the sauce over the steaks.
