Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces (about 12 ounces each) Rib eye steaks
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 cloves (minced) Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons (finely chopped) Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Instructions
Remove the rib eye steaks from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before cooking to bring them to room temperature.
Season both sides of the steaks generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
In a large cast-iron skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Add the rib eye steaks to the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust the cooking time to your preferred doneness.
During the last minute of cooking, add the butter and minced garlic to the skillet. Tilt the pan and spoon the melted garlic butter over the steaks to baste them.
Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes so the juices redistribute.
While the steaks rest, prepare the Dijon gremolata. In a small bowl, combine the parsley, lemon zest, and Dijon mustard. Stir until well mixed.
To serve, place the steaks on plates and spoon the Dijon gremolata over the top. Serve immediately and enjoy!
