Ingredients

• 2 pieces Ribeye steaks (1 to 1.5 inches thick)
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter (softened)
• 3 tablespoons Red wine
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme (chopped)
• 1 teaspoon Fresh parsley (chopped)

Directions

Step 1

Remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before grilling. This ensures even cooking.

Step 2

Prepare the red wine butter: In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, red wine, minced garlic, chopped thyme, and parsley. Mix thoroughly until smooth and well combined.

Step 3

Place the butter mixture onto a piece of plastic wrap or parchment paper. Roll it into a log shape, twist the ends to seal, and refrigerate until firm—about 15 to 20 minutes.

Step 4

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 400°F/200°C). Clean and oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.

Step 5

Pat the steaks dry with paper towels. Rub both sides of the steaks with olive oil, then season generously with salt and black pepper.

Step 6

Place the steaks on the preheated grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes on the first side without moving, then flip and cook for another 4-5 minutes for medium-rare. Adjust cook time based on your desired doneness.

Step 7

Remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest on a cutting board, tented with aluminum foil, for 5-7 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.

Step 8

Slice the red wine butter into rounds. Top each steak with a generous slice of butter while still warm, allowing it to melt over the meat.

Step 9

Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a crisp salad.
