Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large steaks (about 1.5 inches thick) Ribeye steak
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 sprigs Fresh rosemary
- 2 sprigs Fresh thyme
Instructions
Remove the ribeye steaks from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for 30 minutes. This ensures even cooking.
In a small bowl, mix together the kosher salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper to create the seasoning blend.
Pat the steaks dry with paper towels and rub them with olive oil on both sides.
Generously season both sides of the steaks with the seasoning blend, pressing it into the meat with your hands.
Heat a cast-iron skillet or grill pan over high heat until it is very hot. (You can also use an outdoor grill for this recipe.)
Add the steaks to the hot pan and sear for 3-4 minutes on the first side without moving them, to create a nice crust.
Flip the steaks and sear for another 3-4 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium if the steak browns too quickly.
Add the butter, rosemary, and thyme to the pan. Tilt the pan slightly and use a spoon to baste the steaks with the melted butter and herbs for an additional 1-2 minutes.
Check the internal temperature of the steaks using a meat thermometer. For medium-rare, aim for 130°F (54°C); for medium, 135°F (57°C). Adjust cooking time as needed.
Remove the steaks from the pan and let them rest on a cutting board, loosely covered with aluminum foil, for 5-10 minutes to retain their juices.
Slice the steaks thinly against the grain for maximum tenderness. Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as coleslaw, cornbread, or roasted vegetables.
