Tender pan-roasted ribeye enhanced by fresh parsley butter and savory aromatics.

# The Ingredients You'll Need:

→ For the Steak

01 - 1 ribeye steak, well-marbled
02 - 1 teaspoon kosher salt
03 - 1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
04 - 1 tablespoon cooking oil (canola or grapeseed)

→ For the Aromatics

05 - 2 shallots
06 - 2 cloves garlic, minced
07 - 1 teaspoon fresh thyme or rosemary (optional)

→ For the Parsley Butter

08 - 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
09 - 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped

# Step-by-Step Instructions:

01 - Combine softened unsalted butter with finely chopped fresh parsley in a small bowl until well mixed.
02 - Allow the ribeye steak to sit at room temperature for 30 to 45 minutes to ensure even cooking.
03 - Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
04 - Pat the ribeye dry and season generously on both sides with kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper.
05 - Heat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and add cooking oil. Sear the ribeye for 4 to 5 minutes until a golden-brown crust forms.
06 - Flip the steak, then add shallots, minced garlic, and optional fresh herbs to the skillet.
07 - Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast the ribeye for 3 to 4 minutes for medium-rare doneness.
08 - Remove the skillet from the oven. Transfer the steak to a cutting board, tent loosely with foil, and let rest for 10 minutes to retain juices.
09 - Slice the ribeye against the grain and serve topped with the parsley butter and cooked shallots.

# Extra Tips:

01 - Allowing the steak to reach room temperature ensures even cooking. Sear to develop a perfect crust and let it rest for maximum juiciness.
