Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Remove Steak from Fridge

    Take the ribeye steaks out of the refrigerator and allow them to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking.

  2. 2

    Season the Steaks

    Pat the steaks dry with paper towels. Rub both sides of each steak with olive oil, then season generously with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Preheat the Pan

    Heat a heavy skillet or cast iron pan over medium-high heat until it is very hot.

  2. 4

    Sear the Steaks

    Add the seasoned steaks to the hot pan. Sear for about 4-5 minutes on one side without moving them, until a rich brown crust forms.

  3. 5

    Flip the Steaks

    Carefully flip the steaks using tongs. If using, add butter and fresh rosemary to the pan at this time.

  4. 6

    Cook to Desired Doneness

    Cook the steaks on the second side for another 3-5 minutes for medium-rare, or longer according to your desired doneness.

  5. 7

    Rest the Steaks

    Remove the steaks from the pan and let them rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.
