Description

Savor the rich flavors of perfectly pan-seared ribeye steaks topped with a luscious garlic butter sauce, ideal for a memorable meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ribeye steaks
  • Salt and pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • Fresh herbs (such as thyme or rosemary) for garnish

Instructions

  1. Remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot.
  3. Add the steaks to the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, depending on the thickness.
  4. In the last minute of cooking, add butter and minced garlic to the pan. Spoon the melted butter over the steaks.
  5. Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  6. Serve, garnished with fresh herbs and the garlic butter drizzled on top.

Notes

Use a meat thermometer to ensure perfect doneness, aiming for an internal temperature of 130°F for medium-rare. Resting the steak after cooking is crucial for retaining juices.
