Ingredients
2 10-oz ribeye steaks
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon avocado oil
2 tablespoons butter
3 garlic cloves, smashed
2 sprigs fresh thyme or rosemary
Instructions
1. Bring the steaks to room temperature for 30–45 minutes.
2. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and heat a cast iron skillet over high heat.
3. Pat the steaks dry and season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
4. Add oil to the skillet and sear the steaks for 2–3 minutes per side.
5. Reduce heat slightly and add butter, garlic, and herbs; baste the steaks for 30 seconds.
6. Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook for 5–7 minutes, depending on desired doneness.
7. Remove steaks and let rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
Use a meat thermometer to check doneness: 130–135°F for medium-rare.
Letting the steak rest ensures juicy, tender results.
Serve with your favorite sides like mashed potatoes, asparagus, or Caesar salad.
