Ribeye Steak with Blue Cheese Butter and Walla Walla Onion Rings

Coming to you from Portland


The one from Laurelhurst Market is above and mine is below.


I got this recipe from one of my bon appetit magazines which I featured on a previous post.  I was hoping to duplicate the look and taste of this menu item from Laurelhurst Market and then go to the restaurant and compare, but it goes for $38 so I might have to wait to do that taste test for when I have a real job.  I was very pleased with how mine turned out.  It was very easy and the onion rings were really fun to make.  The onion ring crust is light (nothing like the thick fried ones you get at Red Robins) which I love.  They are best served hot, but you have to cook them in batches so once they make it to the table they have cooled down a bit.  I added a bed of spinach to place the steak on to soak up the juices and add a little color.  I spent about $30 for three servings of this meal, so that's quite a bargain compared to the restaurant price, and I'm going to venture to say the quality of my dish is comperable even though I've never tasted the original.
