Ingredients
2 ribeye steaks
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons butter
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon fresh rosemary or thyme
Optional: red pepper flakes for extra heat
Instructions
Remove the steaks from the refrigerator 20–30 minutes before cooking to bring them to room temperature.
Pat the steaks dry with paper towels. Rub both sides with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Heat a cast-iron skillet or heavy pan over high heat until very hot.
Add the steaks and sear for about 3–4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or cook longer to your preferred doneness.
Lower the heat slightly and add butter, minced garlic, and rosemary or thyme to the pan.
Spoon the melted garlic butter over the steaks continuously for 1–2 minutes.
Remove the steaks from the pan and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
