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.

Categories     Dinner

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound ribeye steak
4 teaspoons salt (pink Himalayan is my favorite)
1-2 Tablespoons pepper (black pepper or peppercorn medley - pepper should be coarse in size)
2 Tablespoons olive oil
1 head of garlic
1 shallot
2 sprigs of rosemary (thyme can be used instead or in addition to the rosemary)
4 Tablespoons butter (grass-fed)

Steps:

  • Remove your steaks from their packaging. Using a paper towel, dry your steaks on all sides. Allow them to come to room temperature. This will take anywhere between 10-20 minutes. After 10 minutes, salt and pepper your steaks generously on all sides. While waiting, prep your aromatics.
  • Remove the skin from on shallot and roughly chop into large pieces. Cut an entire head of garlic in half horizontally.
  • Preheat your dry skillet over medium heat until it starts to smoke. This will take about 3 minutes. Skillet should come to 475F.
  • Pour in the olive oil. It will be shiny against the hot skillet. Gently lay your steak in the pan away from you. It will continue to smoke and sizzle. Allow to cook for 2 minutes.
  • Using tongs, flip the steak onto the other side. Cook for another 1-2 minutes. During this second flip, add the shallot, garlic, rosemary, and butter to the skillet. Render the fat on the edge of the steak.
  • As the butter melts, tip the skillet towards you. Using a spoon, gather the brown butter continuously and baste the aromatics and steak.
  • Remove from the skillet and set on a cutting board. Allow to rest 5 minutes before cutting. While resting pour one more spoonful of browned butter over the steak. Once ready, cut into 1/4 inch - 1/2 inch strips against the grain and at an angle. Serve and enjoy.

PAN-SEARED RIB-EYE



Pan-Seared Rib-Eye image

For an easy, meaty main, try Alton Brown's recipe for Pan-Seared Rib Eye from Good Eats on Food Network. The trick to a good sear? A hot skillet.

Provided by Alton Brown

Categories     main-dish

Time 15m

Yield 1 to 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 boneless rib eye steak, 1 1/2 inches thick
Canola oil, to coat
Kosher salt and ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place a 10-to-12-inch cast-iron skillet in the oven and heat the oven to 500 degrees F. Bring the steak to room temperature.
  • When the oven reaches temperature, remove the skillet and place on the range over high heat for 5 minutes. Coat the steak lightly with oil and sprinkle both sides with a generous pinch of salt. Grind on black pepper.
  • Immediately place the steak in the middle of the hot, dry skillet. Cook 30 seconds without moving. Turn with tongs and cook another 30 seconds, then put the pan straight into the oven for 2 minutes. Flip the steak and cook for another 2 minutes. (This time is for medium-rare steak. If you prefer medium, add a minute to both of the oven turns.)
  • Remove the steak from the skillet, cover loosely with foil and rest for 2 minutes. Serve whole or slice thin and fan onto plate.

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.

SKILLET RIB EYE STEAKS



Skillet Rib Eye Steaks image

Rib eye is exceptionally moist and tender, so it's a good choice for entertaining.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Beef Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 bone-in rib eye steaks (about 1 pound each)
1/3 cup loosely packed small rosemary sprigs, leaves picked from stems and coarsely chopped (1/4 cup)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves

Steps:

  • Place steaks on a plate and pat dry with paper towels; season both sides generously with salt and pepper. Reserve half the rosemary; sprinkle the remaining evenly over top of each steak, pressing to adhere. Let come to room temperature, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium, then add oil and garlic. When oil is hot but not smoking, push garlic to the edge of pan and add steaks, rosemary side up. Cook steaks until a dark-brown crust forms on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Turn with tongs and cook 3 to 4 minutes more for medium-rare (remove garlic once it begins to turn brown). Transfer steaks to a cutting board to rest 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, add reserved rosemary to the skillet; once it begins to sizzle, stir to coat with the oil and, tilting skillet to collect oil, spoon it over the steaks. Slice steaks by cutting parallel to the bone on the diagonal.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality rib eye steaks with good marbling for optimal flavor and tenderness.
  • Pat the steaks dry before seasoning and cooking to ensure an evenly browned crust.
  • Liberally season the steaks with salt and pepper, or use your favorite steak seasoning blend.
  • Heat your skillet over medium-high heat to get a good sear on the steaks.
  • Sear the steaks for 2-3 minutes per side, or until a nice crust has formed and the steaks are cooked to your desired doneness.
  • Let the steaks rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving, to allow the juices to redistribute.
  • Serve the steaks with your favorite sides, such as grilled vegetables, mashed potatoes, or asparagus.
