1
Season the Steak
Pat the ribeye steaks dry with paper towels. Generously season both sides with salt and black pepper, ensuring an even coating.
2
Prepare the Garlic and Herbs
Crush the garlic cloves slightly with the flat side of a knife. Set aside. Take the fresh rosemary sprigs and prepare them for use.

3
Heat the Pan
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.
4
Sear the Steak
Add the seasoned ribeye steaks to the hot skillet. Sear for about 4-5 minutes on the first side without moving the steaks.
5
Add Garlic and Herbs
Flip the steaks over and add the crushed garlic and rosemary to the skillet. Continue cooking for another 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, or until your desired doneness is reached.
6
Baste the Steaks
Tilt the pan slightly and use a spoon to baste the steaks with the olive oil, garlic, and herb mixture for added flavor.
7
Rest the Steaks
Once cooked to your preference, remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a cutting board for about 5 minutes before slicing.
