Instructions
- Step 1: In a small bowl, mix together 1 tbsp paprika, 1 tsp onion powder, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp dried oregano, 1/2 tsp dried thyme, 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper, 1 tsp salt, and 1 tsp black pepper to make the blackening spice.
- Step 2: Pat 2 ribeye steaks dry and rub both sides evenly with 1 tbsp olive oil, then coat generously with the blackening spice.
- Step 3: Preheat a grill or grill pan to high heat (450°F to 500°F) and oil grates to prevent sticking.
- Step 4: Grill steaks for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness, letting a dark crust form.
- Step 5: While steaks rest, combine 4 tbsp unsalted butter, 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh parsley, and 1 minced garlic clove in a bowl.
- Step 6: Top each steak with half the garlic-herb butter so it melts over the hot steak just before serving.
