INGREDIENTS

(ingredient 2)
(ingredient 3)
PREPARATION STEPS
Prepare the Steak:
Take the ribeye steak out of the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. This helps the steak cook evenly.
Pat the steak dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture
Generously season both sides of the steak with sea salt flakes and freshly ground black pepper
Let it sit for a few minutes to absorb the seasoning.
Heat the Pan:
Heat a heavy skillet or cast-iron pan over high heat until it’s very hot. You want the pan to be smoking hot to achieve a good sear on the steak.
Sear the Steak:
Once the pan is hot, place the seasoned ribeye steak in the pan
Let it sear for about 2-3 minutes without moving it, allowing a crust to form
Flip the steak and sear the other side for another 2-3 minutes
This will give you a nice medium-rare steak
Adjust the time slightly if you prefer your steak more or less cooked.
Add Butter, Thyme, and Garlic:
Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the butter, thyme sprigs, and crushed garlic to the pan
As the butter melts, use a spoon to continuously baste the steak with the melted butter, thyme, and garlic
This infuses the steak with rich flavors and keeps it moist.
Rest the Steak:
Once the steak is cooked to your desired doneness, remove it from the pan and let it rest on a cutting board for 5-10 minutes
This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, making it more tender and flavorful.
Serve:
Slice the ribeye steak against the grain and serve with your favorite side dishes. Enjoy this deliciously juicy and flavorful steak!
