Ingredients

• 4 pieces (8-10 oz each) Ribeye steak
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
• 1.5 teaspoons Kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 3 pieces Fresh thyme sprigs

Directions

Step 1

Place the ribeye steaks in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of olive oil, soy sauce, minced garlic, and chopped rosemary. Pour this marinade over the steaks, ensuring they are evenly coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for deeper flavor.

Step 3

Remove the steaks from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking to bring them to room temperature.

Step 4

In a small bowl, combine black pepper, kosher salt, smoked paprika, and cumin. Set this seasoning mix aside.

Step 5

Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and let it heat up until shimmering.

Step 6

Remove the steaks from the marinade, pat them dry with paper towels, and generously rub them with the seasoning mix on both sides.

Step 7

Place the steaks in the hot skillet and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side to get a golden brown crust. Do not overcrowd the pan—work in batches if necessary.

Step 8

Lower the heat slightly, add the butter and thyme sprigs to the skillet, and baste the steaks by spooning the melted butter over the top as they cook for an additional 2-3 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches your desired level (e.g., 130°F for medium-rare).

Step 9

Remove the steaks from the pan and let them rest on a cutting board uncovered for 5-7 minutes to retain their juices.

Step 10

Slice the steaks against the grain, serve immediately, and enjoy the bold flavors and perfect tenderness!
