Ingredients

Scale

For Fries:

  • 1 cauliflower stem
  • 2 teaspoons melted unsalted butter (or melted coconut oil, lard, or avocado oil if dairy-free)
  • ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

For Steak:

  • 1 (4-ounce) boneless rib-eye steak, about ¾ inch thick
  • 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (or coconut oil, lard, or avocado oil if dairy-free)

For Serving:

  • 3 tablespoons Béarnaise Sauce, or 2 tablespoons beef bone broth, homemade or store-bought,
  • For a dairy-free, egg-free pan sauce
  • Fresh thyme leaves (optional)

Instructions

  • To make the fries, preheat the oven to 425°F.
  • Grease a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Cut the cauliflower stem into French fry shapes and place them on the greased baking sheet.
  • Coat the fries with the melted butter and sprinkle with ½ teaspoon of salt and ¼ teaspoon of pepper.
  • Bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Season the steak on both sides with 1 teaspoon of salt and ½ teaspoon of pepper.
  • Place a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat; when hot, melt the butter in the pan.
  • Add the steak and sear on each side for 1 minute.
  • Reduce the heat to medium and cook for another 6 minutes or until the steak is cooked medium-rare (see chart below).
  • Remove the steak from the pan and allow it to rest before cutting.
  • If you’re skipping the béarnaise sauce, use the beef broth to make a quick pan sauce: Pour the broth into the pan and whisk to scrape the bottom of the skillet, and combine the drippings and broth.
  • Place the steak on a serving plate, top with the cauliflower fries, and drizzle with the béarnaise sauce or pan sauce.
  • Serve garnished with thyme leaves, if desired.
