Ingredients
- Ribeye steaks
- 2 (about 1 inch thick)
- Salt
- 1 teaspoon, or to taste
- Black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon, or to taste
- Garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup, softened
- Fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons, finely chopped
- Fresh thyme
- 1 tablespoon, finely chopped
- Fresh rosemary
- 1 tablespoon, finely chopped
- Lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon
Instructions
- Preheat your grill or skillet over high heat, ensuring it is hot enough to create a nice sear on the steak.
- Pat the ribeye steaks dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder, pressing the seasoning into the meat for maximum flavor.
- Place the steaks on the grill or skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare (130°F), adjusting the time according to your preferred level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer for accuracy.
- While the steaks are cooking, prepare the herb butter. In a medium bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter, chopped parsley, thyme, rosemary, and lemon zest. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- Once the steaks are cooked to your liking, remove them from heat and let them rest for 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring a juicy steak.
- Before serving, top each steak with a generous dollop of the herb butter, allowing it to melt into the warm meat.
Tips
- For an extra layer of flavor, consider marinating the steaks for a few hours in a mixture of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and herbs before cooking.
- Feel free to experiment with different herbs, such as chives or oregano, to customize your herb butter.
- Pair this steak with roasted vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
