How To Make Ribeye Steak:
Prepare the Steak: Take the steak out of the refrigerator at least 30 minutes before cooking so it reaches room temperature. This ensures even cooking .
Season Generously: Sprinkle the steak with plenty of sea salt and freshly ground black pepper on both sides to get that perfect flavor .
Heat the Pan: Preheat a frying pan over medium-high heat. If you’re cooking two steaks, use a large enough pan or cook them in two separate pans .
Cook the Steak: Place the steak in the hot pan and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side. Adjust the time based on the thickness of your steak and your preferred doneness. For a 3 cm steak, about 5 minutes should give you a medium-rare cook. Use a meat thermometer if you have one: 50°C for rare, 60°C for medium, and 70°C for well-done .
Add Flavor: After the first flip, add the butter, thyme, and garlic to the pan. Baste the steak by tilting the pan and spooning the melted butter over the top for about 1 minute. This adds incredible flavor and juiciness .
Rest the Steak: Remove the steak from the pan and let it rest for 5 minutes. This step is crucial to keep the juices locked in, so resist the temptation to cut it right away! Resting ensures the meat stays tender and flavorful .
Serve: Slice the steak into strips, season as needed, and serve with your favorite sides and sauces. Enjoy every juicy, flavorful bite!
