Ingredients
  

2 ribeye steaks (about 1 inch thick)

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tbsp olive oil

1 large onion, thinly sliced

2 garlic cloves, minced

1 cup beef broth

1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

1 tsp soy sauce

1 tsp cornstarch mixed with 1 tbsp water (optional for thickening)

2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Steaks: Season the ribeye steaks generously with salt and pepper on both sides.

    Sear the Steaks: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the steaks and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare (adjust time based on your preferred doneness). Once cooked, remove the steaks and let them rest on a plate, covering loosely with foil.

      Cook the Onions: In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add the sliced onions. Cook, stirring frequently, until they're soft and caramelized (about 8-10 minutes). Add the minced garlic, and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

        Make the Gravy: Pour in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce. Stir to combine and let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

          Thicken the Gravy (optional): If you prefer a thicker gravy, stir the cornstarch mixture into the skillet, and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the gravy thickens, stirring frequently.

            Combine Steaks and Gravy: Return the rested steaks to the skillet, spooning some of the onion gravy over the top. Let them warm through for a minute.

              Serve: Plate the steaks, generously spoon the onion gravy over each, and garnish with fresh parsley.
