Ingredients

• 2 pieces Ribeye steaks (about 1 inch thick)
• 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons Blue cheese, crumbled
• 1 teaspoon Fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. This ensures even cooking.

Step 2

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix the unsalted butter and crumbled blue cheese until well combined. Set aside in the refrigerator to keep firm.

Step 3

Pat the steaks dry on both sides with a paper towel. Season both sides generously with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet or cast iron pan over high heat. Add the olive oil and let it become hot but not smoking.

Step 5

Place the steaks into the hot skillet and sear undisturbed for 3-4 minutes on one side, until a golden-brown crust forms.

Step 6

Flip the steaks and sear the other side for another 3-4 minutes for medium-rare, or until they reach your preferred level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature (e.g., 130°F for medium-rare).

Step 7

Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes. Resting allows the juices to redistribute for a moist and tender steak.

Step 8

While the steaks are resting, take the blue cheese butter out of the refrigerator. Top each steak with a dollop of the blue cheese butter just before serving. Let the butter melt into the warm steak for added richness.

Step 9

Garnish with a sprinkle of chopped fresh parsley (optional) and serve immediately.
