02 - 1 tablespoon olive oil
03 - 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
04 - 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

# Method:

01 - Preheat oven to 425°F. Place a wire rack on a baking sheet. Toss potatoes with vegetable oil, salt, and pepper, then spread in a single layer on the rack. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, turning halfway, until golden and crispy.
02 - Combine softened butter, garlic, parsley, thyme, lemon juice, and salt in a bowl. Chill for 10 minutes to meld flavors.
03 - Pat steaks dry, then rub evenly with olive oil, kosher salt, and black pepper.
04 - Heat a heavy skillet or cast iron pan over high heat. Sear steaks for 2 to 3 minutes per side for medium-rare, adjusting time for preferred doneness.
05 - Transfer steaks to a plate, top each with a generous spoonful of garlic herb butter, and let rest for 5 minutes. Serve alongside fries with extra butter if desired.
