Instructions

1. Step 1: In a small bowl, combine 3 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp chopped rosemary, 1 tbsp chopped thyme, 4 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp salt, and 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper to create the marinade. Rub this mixture evenly over both sides of the 2 ribeye steaks. Let marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes.
2. Step 2: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, about 450°F. Place the marinated ribeye steaks on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until internal temperature reaches 130°F, turning only once.
3. Step 3: While the steaks grill, melt 4 tbsp unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir in 1 tsp fresh lemon juice and 1 minced garlic clove until fragrant, about 1 minute, then remove from heat.
4. Step 4: Remove steaks from the grill and let rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes to redistribute juices. Spoon the warm garlic butter over the steaks and garnish with 1 tbsp chopped parsley before serving.
