Ribeye Steak Skillet Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Steak

   Take the ribeye steaks out of the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes. This helps in cooking them evenly.

2. 2

   Season the Steak

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

3. 3

   Heat the Skillet

   Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat until it is smoking hot. Add the olive oil to the skillet.

4. 4

   Cook the Steak

   Carefully place the steaks in the hot skillet. Sear for about 4-5 minutes on one side, without moving them, until a nice crust forms.

5. 5

   Add Garlic and Rosemary

   Flip the steaks and add the garlic cloves and rosemary to the skillet. Sear for another 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness.

6. 6

   Baste with Butter

   In the last 2 minutes of cooking, add the butter to the skillet. Use a spoon to baste the steaks with the melted butter, garlic, and rosemary.

7. 7

   Rest the Steaks

   Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a cutting board for about 5-10 minutes before slicing.

8. 8

   Serve

   Slice the steaks against the grain and serve with the garlic and rosemary from the skillet.
