Ingredients

• 2 pieces Ribeye steaks
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Red chili flakes (optional for heat)
• 1 cup Canned crushed tomatoes
• 0.5 cup Dry red wine
• 0.5 cup Beef stock
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley
• 1 piece Lemon, cut into wedges (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for 20–30 minutes before cooking. This ensures even cooking.

Step 2

Pat the steaks dry with paper towels. Rub both sides with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season generously with salt and black pepper.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

Step 4

Sear the steaks for about 3–4 minutes per side, or until a golden-brown crust forms. For medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 130°F (54°C). Once cooked to your desired doneness, remove the steaks and set them aside to rest on a cutting board, tented with foil.

Step 5

Lower the heat to medium and add minced garlic to the same pan. Sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

Step 6

Stir in smoked paprika, ground cumin, dried oregano, and red chili flakes (if using). Cook for 30 seconds to bloom the spices.

Step 7

Pour in the crushed tomatoes, red wine, and beef stock. Stir well to deglaze the pan and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom. Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook for 8–10 minutes, or until slightly thickened.

Step 8

Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.

Step 9

Return the steaks to the pan, spooning the sauce over them. Cook for another 2 minutes to reheat and infuse the meat with the sauce's flavors.

Step 10

Transfer the steaks to serving plates and pour the sauce over them. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side, if desired.

Step 11

Pair with roasted potatoes, crusty bread, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
