1
Preparation
Take the ribeye steak out of the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking.
2
Season the Steak
Rub the olive oil all over the steak. Season generously with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.
3
Preheat the Pan
Heat a cast-iron skillet or heavy frying pan over high heat until it's very hot.
4
Sear the Steak
Add the steak to the hot pan and sear for about 4-5 minutes on one side without moving it, until a nice crust forms.
5
Flip and Add Butter
Flip the steak and add butter and fresh herbs to the pan. Cook for another 3-4 minutes for medium-rare, basting the steak with the melted butter.
6
Check Doneness
Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. For medium-rare, it should read 130-135°F (54-57°C).
7
Rest the Steak
Remove the steak from the pan and let it rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
8
Serve
Slice against the grain and serve hot.
