Ingredients
- 2 ribeye steak (about 1 pound each steak)
- 1 teaspoon salt (I use kosher salt)
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- rosemary
- thyme
Instructions
- First, make sure the steaks are room temperature and pat-dry them on both sides with a paper towel. Proceed to season the ribeye steak with salt and pepper.
- Then, Place your cast iron on the stove, (or your heaviest pan for best results) over medium-high heat. Add the oil and make sure the pan is really hot (about 3-5 minutes). The hotter the pan the nicer the crust on the steak.
- Now that the cast iron is really hot, place the steaks on the cast iron or heavy pan. Cook each side of the steaks for about 4 to 5 minutes. If you are cooking two steaks make sure they have some distance in between them. You are going to start noticing a beautiful brown marbelized crust.
- Next, add unsalted butter, garlic, thyme, and rosemary. Using a spoon, baste the steak with the butter and continue cooking for an extra 5 minutes or until you reach your preferred doneness. I cooked it at an internal temperature of 130 degrees for medium-rare doneness.
- Place the steaks on a cutting board and let the steak rest for a few minutes before cutting into the meat.
