Ingredients
- 2 pieces (about 1.5 inches thick, 18-20 oz each) bone-in rib eye steak
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 2 teaspoons freshly cracked black pepper
- 2 tablespoons neutral oil (vegetable or canola)
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 small cloves (smashed) garlic cloves
- 2 pieces fresh rosemary sprigs
- 4 pieces fresh thyme sprigs
Directions
Step 1
Remove rib eye steaks from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking to bring them to room temperature. Pat them dry with paper towels to ensure a good sear.
Step 2
Liberally season both sides of the steaks with kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper. Press the seasoning into the meat to adhere fully.
Step 3
Heat a large cast-iron skillet over high heat for about 3-4 minutes until very hot. Add 2 tablespoons of neutral oil and allow it to shimmer.
Step 4
Carefully place the steaks in the skillet (lay them away from you to avoid oil splatter) and sear for 3-4 minutes on the first side without moving, until a deep golden-brown crust forms.
Step 5
Flip the steaks and reduce the heat to medium-high. Sear the second side for 3 minutes.
Step 6
Add the unsalted butter, smashed garlic cloves, rosemary, and thyme to the skillet. Once the butter melts, tilt the pan slightly and use a spoon to baste the steaks continuously for 1-2 minutes to infuse the flavors.
Step 7
For medium-rare doneness, check the internal temperature of the steaks with an instant-read thermometer. It should register 130°F (54°C). Adjust cooking time as needed for desired doneness.
Step 8
Once the steaks reach the desired temperature, transfer them to a cutting board and let them rest for 5-7 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Step 9
Slice the steaks against the grain and serve hot with the garlic-herb butter drizzled on top. Enjoy your Majestic Steakhouse Rib Eye!
