Classic Pan-Seared Ribeye w/ Rosemary & Garlic

Course Mains
Servings 2

Ingredients
  

  • 1 16 ounce Ribeye steak
  • 1 teaspoon peanut or canola oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly cracked pepper *be generous
  • 3-4 sprigs thyme
  • 1-2 sprigs rosemary
  • 2 garlic cloves, partially crushed
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Instructions
 

  • Place skillet in oven and preheat oven to 450°F. Brush both sides of steak with oil and season with salt and pepper. When oven is heated, carefully remove pan and place on stovetop over medium heat.
  • Place ribeye steak in skillet and sear for 2 minutes. Flip, top with garlic, thyme and rosemary and place skillet back in oven for 6-7 minutes.
  • Put skillet back on stovetop over low heat. Flip steak, top with butter and carefully tilt pan while scooping melted butter, garlic and thyme to continually coat steak for 1-3 minutes. Confirm doneness with an instant read thermometer and pull from skillet at 120-125°F for medium rare. Let rest five minutes and coat with browned butter before serving.
  • Note: This technique creates a great mouth-watering charred ribeye steak using a very hot skillet while emitting a great deal of smoke. Be prepared with pot holders and proper ventilation.
