Ingredients
- 2 rib-eye steaks, 1-inch thick
- Pink Himalayan salt, to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (not extra virgin) or other neutral vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon each fresh chopped rosemary, thyme and oregano
- 2 white Italian garlic cloves, chopped
Directions
- Pat the steaks dry with paper towels. On a plate sprinkle the salt and pepper then lay both steaks on top and season the topside of the steaks. Allow steaks to come to room temp, about 30 minutes.
- Preheat a large sauté pan on medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of butter and olive oil to pan and let butter melt.
- Once the foam subsides, add the steaks and turn temp to medium high. Sear until a brown crust forms, about 3-4 minutes per side. Using tongs, stand the steaks on the edges so all surfaces are browned.
- Lay the steaks flat again and move them to one side of the pan. Add remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and let melt. Add rosemary, thyme and oregano and cook for 1 minute. Add the garlic and sauté for 30 seconds. Using a spoon, scoop up the herb butter and drizzle over steaks.
- Use a thermometer to check the internal temperature to gauge doneness. For medium rare temperature should be 125–130 F.
- Remove the steak from pan and transfer to a cutting board or plate, tent with foil, and rest for 5 minutes. The internal temperature will increase about 5 F while steak rests. Slice steaks and drizzle with the garlic-herb butter.
