The holiday season is always a good excuse to indulge in something special and our Seared Ribeye Over Browned Butter Mashed Potatoes makes the perfect indulgent dinner. Just because it’s the holidays doesn’t mean you have to break the bank, so we were really excited to get our high quality, boneless prime ribeye steak from Sam’s Club for a great price! The well marbled and flavorful steak goes so well with the super creamy browned buttered mashed potatoes. This meal is simple enough to make and enjoy during the week, but also good enough for a weekend dinner with some company. Head on over to your local Sam’s Club to check out their awesome selection of boneless prime beef and more! Enjoy!
Seared Ribeye over Browned Butter Mashed Potatoes
Servings:
INGREDIENTS
browned butter mashed potatoes
- ¼ cup (½ stick) unsalted butter
- 2 large russet potatoes (about 1 pound), peeled and chopped
- ½ cup heavy cream
- salt and pepper to taste
steak
- 1 Sam’s Club Boneless Prime Ribeye Steak (about 1 pound)
- 3 ½ tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 garlic clove, lightly smashed
- 2 to 3 sprigs of thyme
- salt and pepper to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
- Place chopped potatoes into a pot and fill with water. Place over high heat and boil until potato is fork tender. Drain into a colander, then place potatoes back into pot.
- Place butter in a small saucepan and melt over medium heat. Continue to cook until butter bits at the bottom of the pan have browned and omit a nutty aroma. Remove from heat and pour over potatoes, scraping out as much of the browned bits as possible.
- Season potatoes with a generous amount of salt and pepper and mash with a potato masher. While potatoes are still lumpy add cream and continue to mash until smooth.
- Adjust seasonings as needed. Cover and set aside.
- Place a large skillet over high heat. Generously season steak with salt and pepper.
- Melt butter and oil into skillet. Add garlic clove and thyme and cook for about 1 minute.
- Add steak to skillet and sear on each side for about 3 minutes.
- Lower heat to medium-high and slightly tilt skillet so butter and oil pile into bottom. For the next 2 to 3 minutes, spoon hot, melted butter and oil mixture over steak, fully basting entire steak. Remove from oven and transfer to a cutting board.
- To serve: Pile mashed potatoes onto a platter and top with steak. Spoon some of the basting mixture over steak and serve.

lovely, a beautiful stsak in a lovely bed of mashed potatoes, thank you
This looks fantastic! It’s all on top of the stove, and can be done fairly quickly. I am curious about the temperature of the meat when finished. How long for medium rare?
You want it to be about 135 degrees F for medium rare and 145 degrees F for medium :)
This looks really tasty and worth preparing! One clarification question: in step 8 you write “Remove from oven…”. Did you mean “skillet” or did I miss something? Thank you.
Ah you’re right! Re Ike has been updated! Thanks!
I have a question: In Step #8, you write, “Remove from oven . . .” When did it go into the oven. Seems a step has been omitted
That’s a typo! Recipe has been updated, thanks!
I can’t find the updated recipe – still wondering when/if it goes in the oven?
The recipe’s updated and it doesn’t go into the oven.
