Ribeye Steak Recipe

Prepare the Steak

Take the ribeye steak out of the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking.

Season the Steak

Rub the steak with olive oil, then season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.

Cook the Steak

Heat a skillet or grill over high heat. Once hot, add the ribeye steak. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust time according to your desired doneness. Add crushed garlic cloves to the pan halfway through cooking for added flavor.

Rest the Steak

Once cooked to your liking, remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.

Prepare the Potatoes

Peel the potatoes and cut them into equal-sized chunks. Place them in a large pot and cover with cold water.

Boil the Potatoes

Bring the pot of water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add a teaspoon of salt and cook the potatoes until they are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.

Prepare the Garlic

While the potatoes are boiling, peel and finely chop the garlic cloves.

Mash the Potatoes

Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add the butter, milk, chopped garlic, salt, and black pepper. Use a potato masher or fork to mash until smooth and creamy.

Serve the Mashed Potatoes

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve warm alongside the ribeye steak.
