Instructions

2-serving instructions (4-serving modifications in red)

Wash produce before use

1

Prep and roast the vegetables

Heat the oven to 450°F.

  • Peel the onion and cut into ½-inch-thick slices.
  • Scrub or peel the carrots and parsnip and trim the ends; cut the carrots and parsnip lengthwise into quarters, then crosswise into 2-inch lengths.
  • Strip the tarragon leaves from the stems; coarsely chop the leaves. Set aside half for the béarnaise sauce.

On a sheet pan, toss the onion, carrots, parsnip, and half the tarragon with 1 to 2 teaspoons oil; season with salt and pepper and drizzle with the honey. Spread in an even layer and roast, stirring halfway through, until the vegetables are lightly browned and just tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and season to taste with salt and pepper. Meanwhile, prepare the steaks.

2

Prep and cook the steaks

  • Pat the steaks dry with a paper towel; season generously with salt and pepper.

In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the steaks.

 

Filet mignons:

Cook, turning frequently, until well browned, 8 to 12 minutes for medium-rare. 

 

New York strips and rib-eyes:

Cook, turning once, until well browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side for medium-rare. 

 

Transfer the cooked steaks to a cutting board to rest for 5 minutes. Cut the steaks into ¼-inch-thick slices. While the steaks are cooking and resting, prepare the béarnaise sauce.

3

Make the béarnaise sauce

  • Working over 1 medium bowl and 1 small bowl, crack the egg and separate the white and yolk, carefully dropping the yolk into the medium bowl and the white into the small bowl. Save the white for another use. [Separate both eggs; save both whites for another use.] Using a fork, lightly beat the egg yolk until smooth and glossy. 

In a small sauce pot over medium-low heat, combine the béarnaise base and ghee and cook, stirring occasionally, until the ghee is melted and the sauce starts to simmer, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and slowly pour the sauce into the bowl with the egg yolk, whisking constantly until the sauce is completely combined (see Chef’s Tip). Stir in the remaining tarragon and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Serve

Transfer the steaks and roasted vegetables to individual plates. Top the steaks with as much béarnaise sauce as you like and serve any remaining sauce on the side.
