Grilled Rib Eye with Caramelized Onions in Creamy Bleu Cheese Sauce



Oh yes, a charcoal grilled rib eye is perfection. But add caramelized onions and heavy cream and bleu cheese???? Yes, sir! Have I mentioned life is good!?!

Here's our ingredient list and then we will begin the process:

4 rib eye steaks (about 5 ounces each) (remove from fridge about 30 minutes before grilling)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 stick softened butter
2 large yellow onions, thinly sliced
1 cup heavy cream
3 to 4 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
3/4 cup crumbled blue cheese


Preheat the grill to a high heat or light your outdoor grill. Sprinkle the steaks with salt and pepper and smear both sides of the steaks with 1/2 stick of the butter.

Grill the steaks until medium-rare, 3 to 4 minutes per side, and then remove from the heat and keep warm. (You can also saute them in a skillet over medium-high heat if you prefer.)

Melt the remaining 1/2 stick of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the onions.

 

Saute the onions until golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes.


Pour in the cream and a dash of salt and pepper



Add the Worcestershire sauce.  See my pretty fleur de lis measuring spoon?



Let it bubble up, then add the bleu cheese and stir together to melt, adding more pepper or Worcestershire sauce as you wish.



Ahhhhh, isn't that pretty?


Place the steaks on plates and spoon the sauce over the top.  Enjoy the friends you have made for life!
