Know Your Steak Poster for Delicious Cooking Guide
Ingredients
- 2 steaks ribeye steaks (about 1 inch thick)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
- to taste sprigs fresh rosemary (for garnish)
- to taste wedges lemon (for serving)
Instructions
- Remove the ribeye steaks from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This helps them cook evenly.
- In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture generously over both sides of each steak.
- Preheat your grill to high heat (or use a cast-iron skillet on the stovetop over medium-high heat). Make sure it’s nice and hot before cooking the meat.
- Place the steaks on the hot grill or skillet. For medium-rare, cook for approximately 4 to 5 minutes on one side without moving them. Flip the steaks and cook for an additional 3 to 4 minutes. Adjust time based on desired doneness.
- Once cooked, transfer the steaks to a plate and cover with foil. Let them rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
- Slice the steaks against the grain for maximum tenderness. Garnish with fresh rosemary sprigs and serve with lemon wedges on the side for a zesty finish.
💡 Chef's Notes
Let the steaks rest after cooking for better flavor.
