Perfectly Seared Steak with Garlic Butter Sauce

1Take the ribeye steaks (2) out of the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to ensure even cooking.

2Season the steaks generously with salt and black pepper on both sides, pressing the seasoning into the meat for better flavor absorption.

3Heat a cast-iron skillet over high heat until it is smoking hot, about 5 minutes.

4Place the steaks in the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare doneness, adjusting the time based on your desired level of doneness.

5Add the butter, garlic (4 cloves) cloves, thyme, and rosemary to the skillet. Tilt the skillet slightly and spoon the melted butter over the steaks continuously for 1-2 minutes to infuse them with flavor.

6Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute and ensure a juicy steak.

7Serve the steaks with the garlic (4 cloves) butter sauce drizzled on top for extra flavor and richness.
