1
Prepare the Steak
Take the rib eye steaks out of the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. This ensures even cooking.
2
Season the Steak
Pat the steaks dry with paper towels. Generously season both sides with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Drizzle with olive oil and rub the seasoning into the meat.

3
Preheat the Grill or Pan
Heat a grill or a cast-iron skillet over high heat for about 5-10 minutes until very hot.
4
Cook the Steak
Place the steaks on the hot grill or skillet. Cook for approximately 4-5 minutes on one side until a golden-brown crust forms. Flip the steaks and cook for another 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, adjusting time according to desired doneness.
5
Add Optional Ingredients
During the last minute of cooking, add butter and rosemary to the pan. Spoon the melted butter over the steaks for added flavor.

6
Rest the Steak
Remove the steaks from the heat and let them rest for at least 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
