Method
Steak Preparation
- 1
Season the Steak
Pat the ribeye steaks dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Let the steaks sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to enhance the flavor.
- 2
Heat the Pan
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering, about 2 minutes.
- 3
Cook the Steak
Place the seasoned steaks in the hot skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes on the first side without moving them, until a brown crust forms.

Check for Doneness
Continue cooking the steaks for another 3-4 minutes for medium-rare, or longer to your desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature (130°F for medium-rare).
- 6
Rest the Steak
Remove the steaks from the skillet and transfer them to a cutting board. Let them rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.
