Method
 

  1. Make the crispy garlic and shallot- Mince the garlic and slice the shallots thinly. In a pan over medium heat, add 3 tablespoon of avocado oil. Once the oil is heated, carefully add the thinly sliced garlic and shallots.- Fry the garlic and shallots until it turns golden brown and becomes irresistibly crispy. Remove the garlic from the pan, use paper towels to remove excess oil.

  3. Sear the Ribeye- With 2 tablespoon of the garlic-infused oil still in the pan, turn up the heat to medium-high. Add the bite-sized ribeye cubes and sear them to perfection. About 2 minutes on each side. Remove the beef and set aside.

  5. The sauce - Once the ribeye is seared to your liking, remove the beef and set aside.- Reduce the heat to low.- Add the chicken stock or water,oyster sauce, worchestire sauce and soy sauce. Add the cold butter to the pan to make the sauce thick and glossy.
  6.  
  7. Garnish and Enjoy! - Stir the beef until well combined. Allow the flavors to meld for an additional 2-3 minutes. Just before serving, sprinkle the crispy garlic and shallots garnish over the beef.- Serve this with freshly steamed white rice, your favorite veggies or salad and garnish with green onions. 

Notes

  • Choose Good Cuts: Begin with quality beef like sirloin steak or tenderloin for a tasty and tender outcome.
  • Quick Searing (Nice Crust): Cook the beef on a high heat briefly to get a nice, caramelized crust while keeping the inside juicy and tender. Do not crowd the pan.
