Ingredients

• 2 pieces Ribeye steak (1-inch thick)
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 pieces Garlic cloves (crushed)
• 1 sprig Fresh rosemary
• 2 teaspoons Brown sugar

Directions

Step 1

Take the ribeye steaks out of the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking to allow them to come to room temperature.

Step 2

Pat the steaks dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture, then season them generously on both sides with salt and black pepper.

Step 3

Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until it is very hot, then add the olive oil to coat the bottom of the pan.

Step 4

Carefully place the steaks into the skillet and allow them to sear undisturbed for 3-4 minutes on the first side, until a golden-brown crust forms.

Step 5

Flip the steaks using tongs and sear the other side for another 3-4 minutes.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to medium and add the unsalted butter, crushed garlic cloves, rosemary sprig, and brown sugar to the skillet.

Step 7

Tilt the skillet slightly and use a spoon to continuously baste the steaks with the melted butter mixture to build caramelisation and enhance the flavour.

Step 8

Cook the steaks to your desired doneness using a meat thermometer (130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium). This should take another 3-5 minutes, depending on thickness.

Step 9

Once cooked, remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a cutting board for at least 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.

Step 10

Slice the steak against the grain, if preferred, and serve hot with your choice of side dishes like roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes.
