Ingredients
  

For the Steak
  • 2 pieces Ribeye Steak The star of the meal, known for its rich marbling, ensuring tenderness and flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Enhances the natural flavors of the steak; use kosher salt for best results.
  • 1 teaspoon Black Pepper Adds a touch of heat; freshly cracked is preferred for maximum flavor.
  • 1-2 tablespoons Butter/Oil Use butter for a rich taste or a high smoke point oil for searing.
For the Creamy Garlic Sauce
  • 4 cloves Garlic Fresh garlic offers the best flavor; you can substitute with dried garlic in a pinch.
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream Provides the creaminess to the sauce; try Greek yogurt for a lighter option.

Equipment

  • Skillet

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Start by seasoning your ribeye steak generously with salt and pepper on both sides. Allow it to sit at room temperature for about 20–30 minutes.
  2. In a large skillet, heat 1–2 tablespoons of butter or oil over high heat until shimmering. Sear the steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until a golden-brown crust forms.
  3. Reduce the skillet’s heat to medium and add minced garlic to the remaining drippings in the pan. Sauté the garlic for about 1 minute until fragrant, then pour in 1 cup of heavy cream, stirring continuously.
  4. Return the rested steak to the skillet and spoon the creamy garlic sauce over it, warming through for an additional 1-2 minutes.
  5. Transfer the steak onto a serving plate, drizzling leftover creamy garlic sauce on top and adding a sprinkle of freshly cracked pepper or chopped parsley for presentation.
