Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (12 oz each) Rib eye steaks
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 teaspoons Kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon (chopped) Fresh rosemary
- 2 minced Garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons Prepared horseradish
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon (chopped, for garnish) Chives
Instructions
Take the rib eye steaks out of the refrigerator and allow them to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This ensures even cooking.
Pat the steaks dry with a paper towel. Rub them on both sides with olive oil, then season evenly with kosher salt, black pepper, and chopped rosemary. Press the seasoning gently into the meat.
Heat a large cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pan over high heat until it is very hot, about 4 minutes. Add the steaks to the skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Initially, sear for 2 minutes without moving the steaks to develop a nice crust.
Flip the steaks and sear the other side for 2 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and continue to cook, flipping occasionally, until the steaks reach your desired level of doneness: 120°F for rare, 130°F for medium-rare, or 140°F for medium. Use an instant-read thermometer for accuracy.
Remove the steaks from the pan and place them on a cutting board or plate. Tent loosely with aluminum foil and let rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
While the steaks rest, prepare the horseradish sauce. In a small bowl, mix the prepared horseradish, sour cream, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Serve the rib eye steaks warm, topped with a spoonful of horseradish sauce, and garnish with chopped chives for a fresh and colorful finish. Enjoy!
