1
Season the Steak
Generously season the 21oz cowboy ribeye steak on both sides with kosher salt and black pepper, ensuring an even coating. Let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to allow the seasoning to penetrate.
2
Prepare the Mushrooms
While the steak is resting, clean the crimini and shiitake mushrooms with a damp cloth and slice them into even pieces.
3
Heat the Pan
In a large cast-iron skillet, heat the clarified butter over medium-high heat until it shimmers but is not smoking.
4
Sear the Steak
Once the butter is hot, carefully add the seasoned ribeye steak to the skillet. Sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting the time if you prefer a different doneness.
5
Add Mushrooms
In the last 4-5 minutes of cooking the steak, add the sliced crimini and shiitake mushrooms to the skillet, stirring occasionally to ensure they absorb the flavors from the steak and clarified butter.
6
Rest the Steak
Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest on a cutting board for at least 10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute.
7
Serve
Slice the steak against the grain and serve it with the sautéed mushrooms on the side. Enjoy your delicious prime cowboy ribeye!
