Instructions
- Step 1: Pat steak dry with paper towels. Season both sides evenly with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
- Step 2: Heat 1 tbsp oil in a cast-iron skillet over high heat until smoking. Sear steak 4 minutes per side for medium-rare, then transfer to a plate and rest.
- Step 3: Peel and cut potatoes into 1/4-inch thick sticks. Parboil in salted water for 5 minutes, then cool and dry thoroughly.
- Step 4: Heat 2 tbsp oil in a deep fryer to 375°F (190°C). Fry potatoes in batches for 3-4 minutes until golden, then drain on paper towels.
- Step 5: In the same skillet, sauté minced shallot until translucent. Deglaze with red wine, simmer until reduced by half, then add beef stock and thyme. Reduce by half, then whisk in 2 tbsp butter until glossy.
- Step 6: Slice steak against the grain and serve with fries and demi-glace drizzled over top.
