Steak With Whisky Spiked Onions

• Steak
• 4 NY Strip Steaks
• 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
• 1 tablespoon Ghee or Butter
• Kosher Salt and Pepper
• Whisky Spiked Onions
• 2-3 2 Vidallia onions (not white or yellow will not taste the same)
• 2 splashes Whisky, I prefer Basil Hayden
• 2 tablespoons Grade A or B Maple Syrup - the real stuff not log cabin
• 1 tablespoon Coconut Oil
• Kosher Salt and Pepper

1. Steak should never be cooked COLD, take it out of the fridge and let it sit out for an hour or 1/2hr liberally salt and pepper it like coat that shiz.
2. Use a cast iron or heavy bottom pan. Heat it up until its insanely HOTTTTT
3. Add olive oil & butter (I prefer Ghee)
4. Lay down the steaks - cook for 6mins on each side then 2-3 mins on each side.
5. I also turn them on their sides to brown the fat - mmmm fat.
6. I usually start these 2hrs before everything else, the longer they cook the tastier they become.
7. Slice the onions on a mandolin or something equivalent to slice then super thin.
8. Heat 1 tsbp of coconut oil in the pan and add onions
9. Let them cook on medium high heat until they are a bit translucent.
10. Add Salt and Pepper turn the heat to medium let them go.. bye bye forget about me, maybe put a lid on them leaving a lil space for air to get in.
11. Once they are starting to cook down a lot turn the heat back up and add whisky let that cook off then add the maple syrup and bring it down to a simmer and forget about it until it's time to eat. Yum.
