CREAMED SPINACH

Steps:

• Steam spinach until tender and set aside to cool in a colander placed over a bowl to catch any excess moisture. (Steaming preserves vitamins, so since it cooks quickly, be careful to avoid overcooking the spinach, which will negate that advantage.)
• Cook bacon until crispy in a saute pan and remove to paper toweling to drain and cool. Pour most of the fat out of the pan and add the cream to the same pan over low heat, allowing to reduce by about one-third.
• While the cream is reducing, finely chop the now cooled spinach, and return it briefly to the colander placed over a bowl. Cut the bacon strips into 1/4-inch pieces.
• Whisk the Parmesan into the reduced cream, and season with pepper. Since the cheese will add saltiness, add salt only if needed. Fold the well-drained spinach and bacon into the sauce. Transfer to a serving dish.

REVERSE-SEARED RIB-EYES WITH PARMESAN CREAMED SPINACH AND CHARRED LEMON

Steps:

• Remove the steaks from the refrigerator 1 hour before cooking.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Set a wire rack in a rimmed baking sheet.
• Pat the steaks dry and sprinkle all over with kosher salt. Transfer to the wire rack and bake until the steaks reach your desired internal temperature (120 degrees F for medium-rare; 125 degrees F for medium), 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the steaks from the oven and let rest on the wire rack until ready to sear.
• While the steaks cook, make the creamed spinach: Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a medium saucepan over a medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and slightly translucent, about 3 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon water and cook, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the saucepan. Add the minced garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with kosher salt.
• Add the spinach, season with kosher salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the cream and cook, stirring occasionally, until the cream reduces by half, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from the heat. Stir in the Parmigiano-Reggiano.
• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Coat the cut sides of the lemon with some of the olive oil and place them cut-side down in the skillet. Cook undisturbed until the cut sides are browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the lemons to a plate and set aside. Reserve the skillet.
• Coat the steaks all over with the remaining olive oil.
• Heat the same cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until it starts to smoke. Add the steaks and cook until browned, 45 seconds to 1 minute on all sides. Remove the skillet from the heat. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, the thyme and the whole cloves garlic to the skillet. Tilt the skillet towards you so the butter pools at the bottom and, using a spoon, baste the steaks with the melted butter for 1 minute.
• Transfer the steaks to a cutting board and slice immediately. Drizzle with the balsamic, sprinkle with flaky sea salt, and garnish with the charred lemons and fresh mint. Serve with the creamed spinach. Enjoy!
