Irish Steaks

Recipe View In a heavy-bottomed skillet (cast iron preferred), melt butter with vegetable oil over medium heat. (2 minutes)

Recipe View Add chopped onion and sauté until softened and lightly golden brown, stirring occasionally. Push the onions to the sides of the pan. (8-10 minutes)

Recipe View Rub the cut sides of the garlic clove over both sides of each steak, infusing them with aromatic flavor. Place the steaks in the skillet, increasing the heat to medium-high. (1 minute)

Recipe View Sear the steaks until browned and cooked to your desired level of doneness, about 2-4 minutes per side for medium-rare (130-135°F or 54-57°C). Use an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the steak to ensure accurate doneness. (4-8 minutes)

Recipe View Remove the skillet from the heat. Carefully pour the Irish whiskey into the hot skillet, standing back to avoid any flare-ups. Be cautious as the whiskey fumes are flammable. (1 minute)

Recipe View Return the skillet to medium-low heat. Stir the browned onions into the whiskey pan sauce and simmer gently for 1-2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together and the sauce to slightly reduce. (2 minutes)

Recipe View Season the steaks with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Garnish generously with chopped fresh parsley. Turn the steaks over to coat both sides with the luscious pan sauce. (1 minute)

Recipe View Serve the Irish steaks immediately, drizzling the remaining pan sauce generously over the top. Enjoy with your favorite sides.
