Ingredients

  • 2 steaks (about 8 oz each) steak (ribeye or sirloin)
  • 1 large, sliced onion
  • 3 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp, chopped fresh parsley
  • 4 cups mixed salad greens
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  1. 1

    Pat the 2 steaks dry and season both sides with salt and pepper. Let them sit at room temperature for 10 minutes.

  2. 2

    Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over high heat. Add the steaks and cook for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, until browned and firm to the touch.

  3. 3

    Remove steaks to a plate and let rest. In the same skillet, add 1 tbsp olive oil and the 1 sliced onion. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until soft and golden, about 8 minutes.

  4. 4

    Mix the 3 tbsp butter with the 2 tbsp parsley. Top each steak with a spoonful of herb butter and the fried onions.

  5. 5

    Serve the steaks with the 4 cups mixed salad greens tossed with the remaining olive oil and a pinch of salt.
