14 Oz Ribeye Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Steak

   Take the ribeye steak out of the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This helps to achieve an even cook.

2. 2

   Season the Steak

   Generously season both sides of the ribeye with salt and black pepper. If desired, you can also rub minced garlic on the steak for added flavor.

3. 3

   Heat the Pan

   Heat a heavy skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and let it heat until shimmering.

4. 4

   Cook the Steak

   Place the ribeye in the hot pan and sear for about 4-5 minutes on one side, until a nice crust forms. Flip the steak and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, adjusting the time for your preferred doneness.

5. 5

   Baste (Optional)

   If desired, add butter and garlic to the pan during the last minute of cooking. Tilt the pan and spoon the melted butter over the steak for added richness.

6. 6

   Rest the Steak

   Remove the steak from the pan and let it rest on a cutting board for about 5-10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.
