  3. In a deep pan, heat oil over medium-high heat and fry the potatoes in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
Serving
  1. Once the steak is done, let it rest for about 5 minutes. Top with the herb butter to melt over the steak. Serve alongside the crispy fries.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for about 3-4 days. Reheat the steak in a skillet over low heat and the fries in the oven for optimal texture.
