Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Ribeye steak (1-inch thick)
- 1 teaspoon Salt (preferably kosher salt)
- 0.5 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 sprigs Fresh rosemary sprigs
- 2 sprigs Fresh thyme sprigs
Instructions
Remove steaks from the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature (about 30 minutes before cooking). This ensures even cooking.
Pat the steaks dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture for a better sear. Season both sides of the steaks generously with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Preheat your grill or grill pan to high heat. Lightly oil the grates or pan with a bit of olive oil to prevent sticking.
Drizzle a thin layer of olive oil onto the steaks and rub it in evenly to help the seasonings stick and promote a nice crust.
Place the steaks on the grill or grill pan and let them cook undisturbed for about 3-4 minutes on the first side until a golden crust forms.
Flip the steaks using tongs and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the second side for medium-rare. Adjust the cooking time as needed for your preferred doneness (2-3 minutes for rare, 4-5 minutes for medium).
In the final minute of cooking, lower the heat slightly and add the butter, rosemary, and thyme to the pan (or baste over the steaks if using a grill). Spoon the melted butter and herbs over the steaks for extra flavor.
Remove the steaks from the heat and let them rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes. Resting allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring tender and juicy meat.
Slice the steaks against the grain and serve immediately. Enjoy with your favorite sides like roasted vegetables or a simple green salad!
