Perfect Ribeye Steak Recipe

Ribeye Steak Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 ribeye steak
• Flaky salt
• Freshly ground black pepper
• 50g butter
• 2 sprigs of thyme
• 1 garlic clove, crushed with skin intact

Instructions:

1. Remove the steak from the refrigerator at least 30 minutes before cooking to bring it to room temperature, ensuring even cooking.
2. Season both sides of the steak generously with salt and pepper, sprinkling from a height to distribute evenly.
3. Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat. If cooking multiple steaks, ensure the pan has enough space for each or use multiple pans simultaneously.
4. Cook the steak for 2-3 minutes on each side, adjusting based on desired doneness and thickness. For medium-rare, aim for a core temperature of 50°C, 60°C for medium, and 70°C for well-done.
5. After flipping the steak, add butter, thyme, and crushed garlic to the pan. Baste the steak with the melted butter for a minute, tilting the pan to collect the butter and spooning it over the steak.
6. Remove the steak from the pan and let it rest for 5 minutes. This crucial step allows the meat to retain its juices when sliced, enhancing flavor and tenderness.
7. Slice the steak against the grain, season to taste, and serve with your preferred sides and sauce. Enjoy your perfectly cooked ribeye steak!
