Ingredients
- 16 oz ribeye steak
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp black pepper freshly ground
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter softened
- 2 cloves garlic cloves minced
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley chopped
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat grill to high heat, about 450°F. Brush a 16 oz ribeye steak with 1 tbsp olive oil and season both sides evenly with 1 tsp kosher salt and 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper.
- Step 2: Place the steak on the grill and cook for 4 minutes without moving to develop a sear, then flip and cook an additional 3-4 minutes for medium-rare, or until desired doneness.
- Step 3: While the steak grills, mix 3 tbsp softened unsalted butter with 2 minced garlic cloves and 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley until combined.
- Step 4: Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes.
- Step 5: Spread the garlic herb butter over the warm steak, allowing it to melt and infuse flavor before slicing and serving.
