Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 boneless rib-eye or New York strip (shell) steak, 1 1/2 to 2 pounds and 2 1/2 inches thick, room temperature
Coarse salt and cracked (butcher-grind) pepper
Steak Butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400. Heat oil in a large cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet (not a nonstick) over medium-high until it begins to smoke. Pat steak dry with paper towels. Season each side with 1 teaspoon coarse salt and 1 teaspoon cracked pepper.
  • Cook steak in skillet over medium-high heat until a dark crust has formed, 5 to 7 minutes per side (reduce heat if meat is browning too quickly). Holding steak with tongs, quickly brown all edges, turning as necessary; lay steak flat in skillet.
  • Transfer skillet to oven. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of steak registers desired doneness, 5 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a plate; spread with 1 tablespoon Steak Butter. Cover loosely with aluminum foil, and let rest 5 to 10 minutes (temperature will then rise another 5 to 10 degrees). Slice across the grain; serve with remaining Steak Butter. Cover and refrigerate any leftovers, up to 2 days.

PAN-SEARED RIB-EYE

Provided by Anne Burrell

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Two 1 1/2-inch-thick bone-in rib-eye steaks
1/2 teaspoon brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon pimenton
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Kosher salt
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
4 tablespoons butter, plus more as needed
1 bunch fresh thyme
1 head garlic, cut in half crosswise
1 Spanish onion, cut into 1/4- to 1/2-inch rings
1 large handful arugula
1/2 lemon, juiced
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Remove the steaks from the fridge at least 15 minutes before cooking.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the sugar, garlic powder, pimenton, cayenne and 1 teaspoon salt. Drizzle the steaks with olive oil to lightly coat. Coat the steaks with the spice rub on all sides.
  • Heat a large cast-iron pan over high heat. Add the butter and let melt. Add the steaks and cook, turning to cook on all sides, until richly browned, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, add the thyme bundle and garlic cut-side down. If the pan seems dry, add more butter. Tilt the pan to spoon the butter over the steaks as they cook. Once the steaks are browned and basted on all sides, place them on a sheet pan fitted with a wire rack. Transfer to the oven and cook through to desired temperature. I like my steaks medium rare! Allow the steaks to rest and the juices to settle at least 10 minutes before slicing.
  • Meanwhile, lower the heat to medium-low under the pan and add the onion rings. Allow to char on both sides, flipping once after about 1 minute. Set aside.
  • To a medium bowl, add the arugula, lemon juice and olive oil to lightly coat. Season with salt and pepper. Add the charred onion and toss.
  • Remove the meat from the bone and slice into 1- to 3/4-inch slices. Lay the steak on a serving platter with the bone on top and garnish with the arugula onion salad. Serve!

PERFECT PAN SEARED RIBEYE STEAK



Perfect Pan Seared Ribeye Steak image

There is always the question of which method is the best for preparing steak, but this Pan Seared Ribeye Steak is perfect and undeniably delicious! Your ribeye will be seared to perfection whether you add some garlic cloves, herbs like rosemary and thyme, or not!!

Provided by Angela

Categories     Beef Dishes     Dinner Recipes     Main Course     Main Dish

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 Tbsp olive oil ((extra virgin))
8 oz ribeye steak
1/2 Tbsp steak seasoning ((see recipe))
1 Tbsp butter
fresh herbs ((optional, rosemary and thyme are my first choice))
2 garlic cloves ((optional, peeled and left whole))

Steps:

  • Bring a medium to large skillet or frying pan to medium high heat, making sure that it is really HOT before you place your steak(s) in the pan.
  • Coat both sides of your steak with olive oil, spreading the oil to evenly cover both surfaces and edges. Season the side facing up with my steak seasoning, using your finger tips to press the seasoning in to set it firmly on the steak ( do not rub it onto the steak as the seasoning can be more heavily concentrated in areas if done this way ). Season the fatty sides for extra flavor!
  • Place the steak in the pan, seasoned side down and then season the side of the steak that is facing upward. Do not move the steak until you are ready to flip it over to cook the other side. If your steak is about 1" thick, cook the first side for 3-4 minutes, if it is 1 1/2" thick let it cook for about 5 minutes ( for medium rare ).
  • Turn the steak and cook for the same amount of time, depending on the steak thickness ( 3-4 minutes for 1" thick steak, or 5 minutes for a 1 1/2" thick steak ). The fat should all be rendered from the steak when done, and the internal temperature should be about 135 degrees F (57 degrees C).
  • Place the butter, garlic, and herbs into the pan once you have turned your steak(s), let it melt, then spoon over the cooked side of your steak ( basting or 'arroser' ) while you finish cooking.
  • Remove the cooked steak from the frying pan or skillet and tent a square of aluminum foil over it, allowing the steak to rest for about 5-10 minutes before serving.
