Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 pieces boneless ribeye steaks Each steak should weigh 250 g.
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 cloves garlic Smashed.
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 sprigs fresh rosemary

Equipment

  • 1 heavy skillet preferably cast iron
  • 1 tongs
  • 1 instant-read thermometer
  • 1 small mixing bowl
  • 1 paper towels

Method
 

  1. Pat the steaks dry with paper towels. Let them come to room temperature for about 10 minutes.
  2. Rub both sides of each steak with olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Heat the skillet over high heat until very hot but not smoking, about 2 minutes.
  4. Place the steaks in the skillet. Sear without moving for 3 minutes, until a golden-brown crust forms.
  5. Flip the steaks with tongs. Add butter, smashed garlic, and rosemary to the skillet.
  6. Tilt the skillet slightly and, using a spoon, baste the steaks with the melted butter while they cook for another 2-3 minutes for medium-rare (internal temperature should be 54°C/130°F).
  7. Remove steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a plate, tented with foil, for 5 minutes before cutting.
  8. Slice, serve, and enjoy!

Notes

For a more well-done steak, cook an additional 1-2 minutes per side.
Letting the steak rest is crucial for juicy results.
Serve with your favorite sides like mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad.
