  • Step 2

    Rub steaks with cut sides of garlic clove.

  • Step 3

    Place steaks in the skillet, leaving the onions to the side, and cook over medium-high heat until meat is browned but still lightly pink inside, 2 to 4 minutes per side.

  • Step 4

    Remove the skillet from heat. Slowly pour Irish whiskey into the hot skillet (be careful, whiskey fumes are flammable). Mix browned onions into whiskey and bring to a simmer over medium-low heat.

  • Step 5

    Sprinkle steaks with salt, black pepper, and parsley; turn steaks over in whiskey pan sauce to coat both sides, and serve drizzled with sauce.

  • Tips

    Cook’s note:

    If desired, light whiskey fumes on fire with a barbecue lighter and allow to cook until the flames die out, about 1 minute.
