Rib Eye with Horseradish Butter and Root Vegetables

I learned two things this weekend.  The first thing is kind of sad.  One of our favorite cooking mags is going out of business.   Everyday Food which is a staple in our household is no more.  We learned in the last issue that MS Living is absorbing it.  Tragic because we use it all the time where as we don't use recipes from Living at all.  I know MS Omnimedia is having financial problems but this mag was from my standpoint one of the best things they did.  Sad.

The second thing I learned was that I love celery root.  Wow, it's delicious. Tastes almost like parsnips.  As a tribute to Everyday Food - we made one last recipe from them for dinner on Saturday night.  Sheet pan rib eye with root vegetables.  It's supposed to be easy and quick be we found that we had to adjust the time considerably.  That's unusual for the original recipe to be that far off but I guess because they are closing that they didn't double check this one.  It was incredibly easy to make just adjust the broiling time based on how you like your steak cooked.

Rib Eye with Horseradish Butter and Root Vegetables

1 large head celery root, peeled, halved, and cut into 1/4 inch wedges.
2 large carrots, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 boneless rib eyes ( 1 pound each; 11/4 inches thick). Excess fat trimmed.
Salt and pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter room temperature.
2 teaspoons prepared horseradish.
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard.
1/4 cup sliced fresh chives.

1. Heat broiler with rack 8 inches from heat.  On a rimmed baking sheet, toss celery root and carrots with oil and arrange in an even layer.  Pat steaks dry and add to sheet; season vegetables and steaks with salt and pepper.  Broil until vegetables are tender and steaks are browned. 8-10 minutes, flipping vegetables halfway through.  Tent steaks with foil and let rest 10 minutes.

2. Stir together butter, horseradish and mustard season with salt and pepper and spread on steaks.  Sprinkle with chives to serve.

Really simple and Delicious!
