Caramelized Ribeye Steak
1. Prepare the Mashed Potatoes
1. Place potatoes in a large pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until tender (about 15–20 minutes).
2. Drain well and return to the pot.
3. Add butter, heavy cream, and milk. Mash until smooth and creamy.
4. Season with salt and pepper. Cover to keep warm.
2. Cook the Steak
1. Pat steak dry with paper towels. Season generously on both sides with salt, pepper, and thyme.
2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
3. Add the steak and sear for 3–4 minutes per side for medium-rare (adjust time to preferred doneness).
4. In the last 2 minutes, add butter and garlic to the skillet, spooning the melted butter over the steak as it cooks.
5. Transfer steak to a plate, tent with foil, and let it rest for 5 minutes.
3. Caramelize the Onions
