Ingredients
- 12 oz ribeye steak
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
- 3, minced garlic cloves
- 1 tbsp, finely chopped fresh parsley
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp active dry yeast
- 3/4 cup warm water
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat grill to medium-high heat (about 450°F). Season 12 oz ribeye steak evenly with 1 tsp kosher salt and 1 tsp black pepper on both sides. Let rest at room temperature for 15 minutes.
- Step 2: While the grill heats, prepare the garlic butter by melting 3 tbsp unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add 3 minced garlic cloves and 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh parsley. Stir and cook for 2 minutes until fragrant, then remove from heat.
- Step 3: Place the ribeye steak on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, flipping once. Remove steak and let rest for 5 minutes, then brush generously with the garlic butter.
- Step 4: For the fresh-baked rolls, combine 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 tsp active dry yeast, 1 tbsp sugar, and 1 tsp salt in a large bowl. Stir in 3/4 cup warm water and 2 tbsp olive oil. Knead the dough for 8 minutes until smooth.
- Step 5: Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour until doubled in size. Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Step 6: Shape the dough into 6 small rolls and place on a baking sheet. Bake for 18-20 minutes until golden brown. Serve rolls warm alongside the garlic butter-topped ribeye.
