Ingredients
- 16 oz ribeye steak
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat your grill to high heat, around 450°F. Pat the 16 oz ribeye steak dry and season both sides evenly with 1 tsp kosher salt and 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper.
- Step 2: Brush the steak lightly with 1 tbsp olive oil to prevent sticking. Place the steak on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, flipping only once, until a nice crust forms.
- Step 3: While the steak grills, in a small bowl combine 4 tbsp unsalted butter, 3 minced garlic cloves, and 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley. Mix well to create garlic herb butter.
- Step 4: Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes on a cutting board. Dollop the garlic herb butter on top of the hot steak so it melts slowly, enhancing the rich flavor.
