Method

Steak Preparation

1

Season the Steak

Pat the ribeye steaks dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.

2

Sear the Steak

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned ribeye steaks and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness.

3

Add Flavor

During the last minute of cooking, add butter, smashed garlic cloves, and fresh thyme to the skillet. Spoon the melted butter over the steaks while they finish cooking.

4

Rest the Steak

Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest for about 5 minutes before serving.

Crab Topping Preparation

5

Mix Crab Topping

In a mixing bowl, gently combine lump crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, chopped chives, and Old Bay seasoning until evenly mixed. Be careful not to break up the crab meat too much.

Assembly

6

Plate the Dish

Place each ribeye steak on a serving plate. Top each steak generously with the crab mixture.

7

Garnish

Sprinkle fresh parsley over the top and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
