Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss 1 lb halved baby Yukon gold potatoes with 3 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp chopped rosemary, 1 tbsp chopped thyme, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes until golden and crispy.
- Step 2: While potatoes roast, season 2 ribeye steaks with 1 tsp kosher salt and 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper on both sides.
- Step 3: Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until very hot. Add 1 tbsp olive oil, then sear steaks for 4 minutes on the first side without moving them.
- Step 4: Flip steaks and add 4 tbsp unsalted butter, 3 minced garlic cloves, and remaining chopped rosemary and thyme to the pan. Spoon melted butter continuously over steaks for 3-4 minutes until internal temperature reaches 130°F for medium-rare.
- Step 5: Remove steaks and let rest for 5 minutes. Serve alongside herb roasted potatoes, spooning any garlic butter from the pan over the top.
