Instructions
- Step 1: Remove 16 oz ribeye steak from refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking to reach room temperature. Pat dry and season both sides evenly with 1 tsp kosher salt and 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper.
- Step 2: Preheat grill to high heat (450-500°F). Brush steak lightly with 1 tbsp olive oil to prevent sticking.
- Step 3: Place steak on grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until internal temperature reads 130°F on a meat thermometer.
- Step 4: While steak grills, combine 3 tbsp softened unsalted butter, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh parsley, and 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves in a small bowl. Mix until well blended.
- Step 5: Remove steak from grill and let rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes to redistribute juices.
- Step 6: Serve steak with a generous dollop of garlic herb butter melting on top for a juicy, flavorful finish.
