Cooking Instructions
- 1
Prepare the Steak
Take the ribeye steak out of the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature for about 30 to 60 minutes. This helps in even cooking.
- 2
Season the Steak
Season both sides of the ribeye steak generously with salt and black pepper. Make sure to rub the seasoning into the meat for better flavor.

Preheat the Pan
In a large skillet or cast-iron pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until it starts to shimmer. This should take about 2-3 minutes.

Add Aromatics
After the first side is seared, flip the steak. Add the crushed garlic cloves and the sprig of fresh rosemary to the pan. This will infuse the steak with lovely flavors.
- 6
Finish Cooking
Continue cooking for another 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, or adjust the time according to your desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer for accuracy (130-135°F for medium-rare).

Rest the Steak
Remove the steak from the pan and let it rest on a cutting board for 5-10 minutes. This helps the juices redistribute throughout the meat.
- 8
Serve
Slice against the grain and serve immediately, optionally with your favorite sides.
