Note

Store leftover caramelized onions in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently before serving.

Substitute dried rosemary with fresh rosemary leaves for a more aromatic flavor.

Ensure your broiler is preheated before adding the steaks for optimal searing.

For a variation, add a splash of balsamic vinegar instead of white wine vinegar for a deeper, richer glaze.

Check the internal temperature of the beef with a meat thermometer: 125&# 194;°F for rare, 135ðF for medium-rare, 145ðF for medium.
