Description
A simple yet delicious recipe for perfectly pan-seared ribeye steak, seasoned with salt and pepper and finished with garlic butter.
Ingredients
- 1 Ribeye steak
- 2 tablespoons garlic butter
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
- Fresh herbs (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Take the ribeye steak out of the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
- Preheat your skillet over medium-high heat.
- Season both sides of the steak generously with salt and pepper.
- Add the garlic butter to the hot skillet and let it melt.
- Carefully place the ribeye in the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side until a nice crust forms.
- Flip the steak and add more garlic butter if desired. Cook for another 3-4 minutes for medium-rare, or longer for desired doneness.
- Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
- Serve with fresh herbs as garnish if desired.
Notes
Let the steak rest after cooking to retain juices, and slice against the grain for maximum tenderness.
