Ingredients

• 2 pieces (8-10 oz each) ribeye steak
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 teaspoons kosher salt
• 2 teaspoons black pepper
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons (chopped) fresh parsley
• 1 clove (minced) garlic
• 1 pound (quartered) red potatoes
• 4 pieces (peeled and cut into sticks) carrots
• 1 pound (halved) brussels sprouts
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, toss the red potatoes, carrots, and brussels sprouts with 1 tablespoon olive oil, paprika, thyme, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1 teaspoon black pepper until evenly coated. Spread the vegetables evenly on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 3

Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, turning halfway through, until tender and slightly caramelized.

Step 4

While the vegetables are roasting, allow the steaks to come to room temperature for even cooking. Pat them dry with paper towels and season both sides generously with the remaining kosher salt and black pepper.

Step 5

Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over high heat until it begins to shimmer. Add the steaks and sear on one side for 3-4 minutes without moving, until a golden-brown crust forms.

Step 6

Flip the steaks and immediately reduce the heat to medium. Add the unsalted butter to the skillet along with the minced garlic and chopped parsley. Use a spoon to continuously baste the steaks with the melted butter mixture for another 3-4 minutes for medium-rare, or to your preferred doneness.

Step 7

Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a plate, tented with foil, for 5-7 minutes to redistribute juices.

Step 8

Serve the steaks alongside the roasted vegetables, and drizzle any remaining herbed butter from the skillet over the steak for extra flavor. Enjoy your Steak Buddies!
