1
Season the Steak
Take the ribeye steaks and generously season both sides with salt and black pepper. Let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to allow the seasoning to penetrate.
2
Prepare the Garlic and Herbs
While the steaks are resting, peel the garlic cloves and lightly crush them. Prepare the fresh rosemary by rinsing and patting it dry.

3
Heat the Pan
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering but not smoking.
4
Sear the Steak
Add the seasoned ribeye steaks to the hot skillet. Sear for about 4-5 minutes on one side until a golden-brown crust forms.
5
Flip and Add Aromatics
Flip the steaks over and add the crushed garlic cloves and fresh rosemary to the pan. Sear for another 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, adjusting the time if you prefer it more or less done.
6
Baste the Steak
In the last couple of minutes of cooking, add the butter to the skillet. As it melts, tilt the pan and use a spoon to baste the steaks with the melted butter, garlic, and herbs.
7
Rest the Steak
Remove the steaks from the pan and place them on a cutting board. Cover loosely with aluminum foil and let them rest for about 5-10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.

8
Slice and Serve
After resting, slice the steaks against the grain and serve with the garlic and rosemary drizzled over the top.
