For the ribeye:

1 (2-3 lb) beef ribeye; Salt and pepper to taste; 1 tsp garlic powder; 1 tsp dried rosemary; 1 tbsp olive oil

For the homemade french fries:

4-5 medium sized potatoes; 1/4 cup vegetable oil; Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 375F.

For the beef: Season the beef generously with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and rosemary. Drizzle olive oil over the beef tenderloin and rub it in to cover all sides.

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the beef tenderloin and sear it for about 1-2 minutes on each side, or until a crust forms.

Transfer the seared beef to a baking tray and place it in the preheated oven. Cook for about 10 minutes for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness.

Remove the ribeye from the oven and let it rest for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

For the homemade french fries:

Peel and cut the potatoes into thick fries. Soak the fries in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a heavy-bottomed pot to 350F.

Drain the fries from the water and dry them with a paper towel.

Carefully add the fries to the hot oil and fry them for about 3-5 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.

Use a slotted spoon to remove the fries from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess oil.

Season the fries with salt and pepper to taste.

Serve the beef tenderloin with the homemade french fries on the side. Enjoy!
