Categories     Valentine's Day     comfort food     dinner     main dish     meat

Time 15m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tbsp. Lawry's seasoning salt
3 tbsp. lemon and pepper seasoning
1 tsp. kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 pieces (about 8 ounces each) ribeye steak
1 tbsp. olive oil
1 tbsp. butter

Steps:

  • Combine the seasoning salt, lemon and pepper seasoning and kosher salt together in a small bowl. Add lots of black pepper, to taste, and mix to create a rub for your steaks.
  • Sprinkle some of the rub on one side of the steaks and rub it all over, then flip and rub the remaining seasoning all over the steaks.
  • Bring a skillet to medium heat. Once hot, add the olive oil and butter. Cook until the oil is hot and the butter is beginning to brown. With tongs, set the steaks right into the sizzling butter/oil mixture.
  • Cook for about 2 minutes on the first side, then flip and turn the heat down to a medium-low to finish off the cooking. Cooking it for about 2 ½ minutes on the second side will result in a medium-rare piece of meat. Alter your cooking time a little to achieve a steak that is a little less pink in the center.
  • Let the steaks rest for a couple minutes before digging in or slice the steaks for a nice presentation and drizzle with the leftover pan sauce from the bottom of the skillet. Serve with mashed potatoes and a side salad.

STEAKHOUSE STEAKS

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h50m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 (10-ounce) filet mignon
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon fleur de sel
1 tablespoon coarsely cracked black peppercorns
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature, optional
Roquefort Chive Sauce, recipe follows
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
2 ounces French Roquefort cheese, crumbled (4 ounces with rind)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Heat a large, well-seasoned cast iron skillet over high heat until very hot, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, pat the steaks dry with a paper towel and brush them lightly with vegetable oil. Combine the fleur de sel and cracked pepper on a plate and roll the steaks in the mixture, pressing lightly to evenly coat all sides.
  • When the skillet is ready, add the steaks and sear them evenly on all sides for about 2 minutes per side, for a total of 10 minutes.
  • Top each steak with a tablespoon of butter, if using, and place the skillet in the oven. Cook the steaks until they reach 120 degrees F for rare or 125 degrees F for medium-rare on an instant-read thermometer. (To test the steaks, insert the thermometer sideways to be sure you're actually testing the middle of the steak.)
  • Remove the steaks to a serving platter, cover tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest at room temperature for 10 minutes. Serve hot with Roquefort Chive Sauce on the side.
  • Bring the heavy cream to a boil in a small heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook at a low boil, stirring occasionally, until the mixture has become thick and creamy, about 20 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, add the cheese, salt, pepper and chives and whisk rapidly until the cheese melts.

RIB EYE STEAKS WITH COWBOY BUTTER



Rib Eye Steaks with Cowboy Butter image

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 sticks salted butter, softened
1/3 cup finely minced fresh parsley, plus more if needed
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
A pinch of coarsely ground black pepper, plus more if needed
1 clove garlic, finely minced
1 lemon, zested and halved
Salt, optional
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 rib eye steaks, 2 inches thick
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • For the cowboy butter: Well in advance, make the cowboy butter. Place the softened butter in the bowl of a mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Whip the butter until it's fluffy. Add the parsley, red pepper flakes, black pepper, garlic, lemon zest and the juice of half the lemon. Mix it until it's totally combined, scraping the sides as needed. Add more parsley, more lemon juice, more pepper or salt if you'd like.
  • Lay out a long piece of plastic wrap and scoop the butter mixture in a long strip down the middle of it. Carefully pull one side of the plastic wrap over the butter, squeezing it gently to form it into a log. Continue to roll the log of butter into a roll. When it's all rolled up, twist the ends (like a piece of candy) until they become very taut (this means the butter is pressing together inside the plastic to form a cohesive roll). Place the roll of butter into the fridge so it will harden, or into the freezer if you need to speed along the process.
  • For the steaks: Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F. Sprinkle salt and pepper on both sides of the steaks.
  • Melt the butter in a heavy ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. When it's melted and golden brown, sear the steaks for about 45 seconds per side. Set in the oven to finish, about 3 minutes.
  • Lay a thick slice of cowboy butter on top of each steak so it will begin to melt. Serve within 5 minutes.

PAN-FRIED RIB-EYE STEAK



Pan-fried rib-eye steak image

Serve beef rib meat at least medium-rare, if not medium, to cook the fat running through it. This gives the meat lots of flavour - great with a red wine sauce

Provided by Barney Desmazery

Categories     Dinner, Main course, Supper

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 rib-eye steaks, each about 200g and 2cm thick
1tbsp sunflower oil
1 tbsp/25g butter
1 garlic clove, left whole but bashed once
thyme, optional

Steps:

  • Up to 8 hrs before cooking, pat the steaks dry with kitchen paper and season with salt and pepper. Heat the oil over a high flame in a heavy-based frying pan that will comfortably fit both steaks. When the oil is shimmering, turn the heat down to medium-high and add the butter. Once it's sizzling, carefully lay the steaks in the pan, tucking the garlic and herbs in at the sides.
  • Stand over the steaks with a pair of tongs, searing and turning them every 30 seconds to 1 min so they get a nice brown crust. As a rough guide, each steak will take 4 mins in total for rare, 5-6 mins in total for medium and 8-10 mins for well done. If you have a digital cooking thermometer, the temperatures you're looking for in middle of the steak are 50C for rare, 60C for medium and 70C for well done. Leave the steaks to rest for at least 5 mins. While the steaks are resting, you can make a classic red wine sauce to go with them.
