Method

  • step 1

    For the chilli butter, mash the parsley into the butter with the chilli, a squeeze of lemon juice, the zest and some seasoning. Chill until firm.

  • step 2

    Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. For the chips, toss all the ingredients on a baking tray, then season. Roast for 35-45 mins until golden and crisp.

  • step 3

    Heat a good glug of oil in a frying pan. Add the extra butter and the seasoned steaks, fry for 2-4 mins on each side, then transfer to plates. Toss the leaves with olive oil and lemon juice. Divide between the plates, add the chips and top each steak with a piece of chilli butter.

RECIPE TIPS
FINISHING TOUCH

Didn't do the butter as we didn't have any chilli in but the steak and the chips were truly superb! Better than a lot of meals we have had in restaurants and so much cheaper. We shared a ribeye as they tend to be big anyway.

Pirate Harri, use a bit of Garlic instead then. I have a block of garlic butter made this way in the freezer all the time and it works very well.
