Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 ribeye steaks
Supporting Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
Seasonings:
- Salt
- Pepper
- Fresh parsley
Instructions
- Pour 2 tablespoons olive oil into a cast-iron skillet, heating it to 400°F over medium-high flame.
- Sprinkle 1 teaspoon dried oregano, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon black pepper directly onto your two ribeye steaks, massaging the seasonings into the meat.
- Drop minced garlic into the hot skillet, stirring quickly for exactly 60 seconds until fragrant.
- Carefully place seasoned steaks into the sizzling skillet, allowing them to cook undisturbed for 4-5 minutes until a golden-brown crust forms.
- Flip steaks using tongs and cook the opposite side for another 4-5 minutes, aiming for a perfect medium-rare internal temperature of 135°F.
- Transfer steaks to a clean cutting board, letting them rest for 5 minutes so juices redistribute throughout the meat.
- Chop fresh parsley and scatter over the steaks just before serving to add a bright, herbaceous finish.
Notes
- Choose a well-marbled cut like ribeye or sirloin for the most tender and flavorful result.
- Let steaks come to room temperature before cooking to ensure even heat distribution and better searing.
- Check doneness with a meat thermometer for precise cooking – 130-135°F for medium-rare is perfect.
- For a lighter version, swap beef for lean flank steak and reduce oil by using a non-stick pan or grilling method.
