Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces ribeye steak (1-inch thick)
- 60 grams blue cheese, crumbled
- 115 grams unsalted butter, softened
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
Take the steaks out of the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking. This ensures even cooking.
In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, blue cheese, and chopped parsley. Mix well until fully incorporated. Shape the mixture into a log using plastic wrap, then refrigerate until firm, about 20 minutes.
Pat the steaks dry with paper towels, then rub them with olive oil. Season each steak evenly with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.
Preheat a cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pan over high heat for 2-3 minutes until very hot.
Carefully place the steaks into the hot pan and sear for 2-3 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer depending on your desired doneness. Avoid moving the steaks while they sear to get a good crust.
Once cooked to your liking, remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute evenly.
Slice the blue cheese butter log into rounds and place a piece on top of each steak while they rest. The residual heat from the steak will melt the butter.
Serve the Blue Cheese Buttered Steak immediately with your choice of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
