Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces (12 oz each) Ribeye steak (or your preferred cut)
- 1 whole Garlic bulb
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 sprigs Fresh rosemary
- 2 sprigs Fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Slice off the top of the garlic bulb to expose the tops of the cloves. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, wrap it in aluminum foil, and roast in the oven for 30-35 minutes until soft and golden.
While the garlic is roasting, pat the steaks dry with paper towels and let them sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.
Season both sides of the steaks generously with salt and black pepper.
Heat a grill or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until very hot.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil onto the hot cooking surface. Place the steaks on the grill/skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare (adjust the time based on your preferred doneness).
Add butter, rosemary, and thyme to the skillet during the last minute of searing. Tilt the pan and spoon the herb-infused butter over the steaks to baste.
Remove the steaks from the heat and let them rest for 7-10 minutes, covered loosely with foil.
Once the roasted garlic is done, let it cool slightly and squeeze the soft cloves out of their skins into a small bowl.
Mash the roasted garlic with a fork, mix in the remaining olive oil, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt to create a garlic-herb paste.
Serve the steaks on a plate, topped with the roasted garlic-herb paste. Garnish with additional fresh herbs if desired.
