Steak Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Take the rib-eye steaks out of the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This allows for even cooking.

  2. 2

    Season the Steak

    Generously season both sides of the steaks with salt and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Heat the Pan

    In a large skillet or cast-iron pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

  4. 4

    Sear the Steak

    Add the seasoned rib-eye steaks to the hot pan. Sear for about 4-5 minutes on one side without moving them to get a nice crust.

  5. 5

    Add Aromatics

    Flip the steaks, then add garlic cloves, rosemary, and butter to the pan. Spoon the melted butter over the steaks as they cook.

  6. 6

    Cook to Desired Doneness

    Cook the steaks for another 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, adjusting time for your preferred doneness.

  7. 7

    Rest the Steaks

    Remove the steaks from the pan and let them rest on a cutting board for about 5-10 minutes before slicing. This helps the juices redistribute.

  8. 8

    Serve

    Slice and serve the rib-eye steaks with the pan juices drizzled over the top.
