Ingredients
  

  • 2 ribeye steaks
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 3 garlic cloves smashed
  • 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
  

Prepare the Steak

  • Remove steaks from the refrigerator thirty minutes before cooking. Room-temperature steak cooks more evenly and stays juicy inside.

Preheat the Oven

  • Heat the oven to 400°F before cooking. A hot oven helps finish the steak perfectly after searing quickly.

Season the Steaks

  • Pat steaks dry using paper towels carefully. Sprinkle salt and black pepper evenly over both steak sides generously.

Heat the Skillet

  • Place a cast iron skillet over high heat. Allow the skillet to become extremely hot before adding oil.

Add the Oil

  • Pour olive oil into the skillet carefully. Swirl lightly until the oil coats the hot pan surface evenly.

Sear the First Side

  • Place steaks inside the skillet carefully. Cook without moving for about three minutes until deep golden crust forms beautifully.

Flip the Steaks

  • Turn the steaks using tongs gently. Sear the second side for another three minutes until browned and crispy.

Add Butter and Herbs

  • Add butter, garlic and rosemary into the skillet carefully. Spoon melted butter over steaks continuously for extra flavor.

Transfer to Oven

  • Place the entire skillet inside the hot oven carefully. Finish cooking until steaks reach your preferred doneness level.

Check Temperature

  • Use a meat thermometer to check doneness accurately. Medium-rare steak should reach about 135°F inside before resting completely.

Rest the Steaks

  • Remove steaks from the oven carefully. Let them rest for ten minutes before slicing to keep juices inside.

Slice and Serve

  • Slice steaks against the grain carefully. Serve warm with buttery garlic juices spooned over the top beautifully.

Notes

  • Use thick steaks for best results.
  • Cast iron skillets create better crust.
  • Dry steaks completely before searing.
  • Avoid overcrowding the skillet.
  • Add thyme for extra herb flavor.
  • Let steaks rest after cooking.
  • Use avocado oil for higher heat.
  • Finish with flaky sea salt.
  • Use filet mignon for tender texture.
  • Baste continuously for richer flavor.
