Method
Preparing the Ribeye
- 1
Bring to Room Temperature
Take the ribeye steaks out of the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This helps them cook more evenly.
- 2
Season the Steaks
Pat the steaks dry with paper towels, then season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.
Cooking the Ribeye
- 3
Heat the Pan
In a large skillet or cast-iron pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
- 4
Sear the First Side
Add the ribeye steaks to the pan. Sear the steaks for about 4-5 minutes on one side, without moving them, to develop a nice crust.
- 5
Sear the Other Side
Flip the steaks and add the garlic cloves and rosemary to the pan. Cook for another 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, or longer to your preferred doneness.
- 6
Baste the Steaks
Use a spoon to baste the steaks with the melted oil and juices from the pan for enhanced flavor.
- 7
Rest the Steaks
Once cooked to your liking, remove the steaks from the pan and let them rest on a cutting board for about 5-10 minutes before slicing.
