1
Prepare the Steak
Take the ribeye steak out of the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. This ensures even cooking.
2
Season the Steak
Drizzle the olive oil over both sides of the steak. Sprinkle the salt, black pepper, and garlic powder evenly over the steak, ensuring both sides are well-coated.
3
Add Fresh Herbs
Place the fresh rosemary sprigs on top of the steak for added flavor. Press down gently to help release the oils.

4
Preheat the Pan
Heat a cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pan over high heat until it is very hot.
5
Sear the Steak
Place the steak in the hot pan and sear for about 4-5 minutes on one side, without moving it, until a crust forms.
6
Flip the Steak
Using tongs, carefully flip the steak over and sear the other side for another 4-5 minutes for medium-rare doneness.
7
Check for Doneness
For best results, use a meat thermometer. The internal temperature should reach 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare.
8
Rest the Steak
Remove the steak from the pan and let it rest on a cutting board for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.
