This Ribeye Steak Recipe is the only steak recipe you'll ever need - it guarantees a perfectly cooked, juicy, and tender steak 🥩 every time, no matter what cut you’re working with.
Remove the steak from the fridge and let it come to room temperature. Pat it dry well. Generously season both sides with salt and pepper from higher above.
Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat and add 1-2 tablespoons of oil. Let the oil heat until shimmering.
Using tongs, hold the steak on its side and sear the fat cap until browned.
Lay the steak flat in the pan and press it down with a heavy object to ensure even contact. Sear for about 2-3 minutes . Flip the steak and sear the other side for another two minutes (for medium-rare).
Lower the heat and add the butter, garlic cloves, and rosemary to the pan. Tilt the pan slightly and spoon the melted butter over the steak, basting repeatedly.
Remove the steak from the pan and let it rest for at least ten minutes.
For medium-rare, the internal temperature should reach 125°F (52°C) before resting, as it will rise another 5-10°F (3-6°C) while resting.
Enjoy your perfectly seared ribeye! 🔥🥩
