Pan-Seared Ribeye Steak with Herb Butter

Ingredients

• 2 ribeye steaks, about 1 inch thick
• Salt and pepper
• Olive oil
• 3 garlic cloves, smashed
• 3 sprigs of thyme
• 3 sprigs of rosemary
• 3 tablespoons butter, at room temperature

Instructions

• Preheat your oven to 400°F.
• Season the steaks generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over high heat. Once the skillet is hot, add a drizzle of olive oil and swirl to coat the bottom of the pan.
• Add the steaks to the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, until they are seared and browned.
• Add the garlic, thyme, and rosemary to the skillet, and baste the steaks with the melted butter using a spoon.
• Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and cook the steaks for about 5-7 minutes, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
• Remove the skillet from the oven and let the steaks rest for 5 minutes before serving.
• In a small bowl, mix together the room temperature butter and chopped herbs to make the herb butter.
• To serve, slice the steaks against the grain and top each slice with a dollop of herb butter. Enjoy!
