3. Add steak to the skillet in a single layer, ensuring not to overcrowd. Cook for 2 minutes without stirring to achieve a golden-brown crust.
4. Flip each steak cube and cook for another 2 minutes for medium-rare. For well-done, extend cooking time by 1-2 minutes.

Classic Ribeye Steak with Herb Butter

Grilling a perfect ribeye steak is one of those simple pleasures that never gets old. I remember the first time I nailed the sear on a thick, juicy ribeye—it was a game-changer for my Sunday dinners. Now, let me share how you can achieve that same mouthwatering perfection with a dollop of herb butter melting over the top.

Ingredients

• 1 (1.5-inch thick) ribeye steak
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
• 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh rosemary
• 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh thyme
• 1 tsp minced garlic
• 1 tbsp high-smoke-point oil (like avocado or grapeseed oil)
• 1 tsp coarse sea salt
• 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

1. Remove the ribeye from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking to bring it to room temperature for even cooking.
2. Preheat your grill or cast-iron skillet to high heat (about 450°F) to ensure a good sear.
3. While the grill heats, mix the softened butter, rosemary, thyme, and garlic in a small bowl to create the herb butter. Set aside.
4. Pat the steak dry with paper towels to remove any moisture, which helps achieve a better sear.
5. Rub the steak with oil, then season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
6. Place the steak on the grill or skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes on the first side without moving it to develop a crust.
7. Flip the steak and cook for another 3-4 minutes for medium-rare (135°F internal temperature), or adjust time for desired doneness.
8. Remove the steak from the heat and immediately top with a generous spoonful of the herb butter, letting it melt over the top.
9. Let the steak rest for 5 minutes before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute.

Last night’s ribeye was so tender, the knife glided through like butter, and the herb butter added a fragrant, rich layer of flavor. Try serving it with a side of roasted garlic mashed potatoes to soak up all those delicious juices.

6. Roast at 450°F (232°C) for 15 minutes to sear the outside, then reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (163°C) without opening the oven door.
7. Continue roasting for about 2 hours, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare.
8. Remove the roast from the oven and let it rest, tented with foil, for 20 minutes before carving to allow the juices to redistribute.

Gorgeously crusted on the outside and tenderly pink within, this prime rib roast is a showstopper. Serve it with a side of roasted root vegetables or a crisp salad to cut through the richness, and watch as it becomes the centerpiece of your dining table.

Argentinian Asado Grilled Steak

Every time I fire up the grill for an Argentinian Asado, it’s not just about cooking; it’s about embracing a tradition that turns a simple steak into a celebration. I remember my first attempt, the smoke swirling around me, the sizzle of the meat hitting the grill—it was love at first bite. Now, it’s my go-to for impressing friends or treating myself to something special.

Ingredients

• 2 lbs of thick-cut, well-marbled ribeye steak
• 1/4 cup of coarse sea salt
• 1/2 cup of fresh, zesty chimichurri sauce
• 2 tbsp of rich extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tsp of finely ground black pepper

Instructions

1. Preheat your grill to a high heat of 450°F, ensuring the grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.
2. Generously season both sides of the ribeye steak with coarse sea salt and finely ground black pepper, pressing the seasoning into the meat.
3. Drizzle the steak with rich extra virgin olive oil, rubbing it in to coat evenly for a perfect sear.
4. Place the steak on the grill and cook for 5 minutes on each side for a medium-rare finish, or adjust time based on your preference.
5. Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 10 minutes under a foil tent to allow the juices to redistribute.
6. Slice the steak against the grain and serve with a generous dollop of fresh, zesty chimichurri sauce on top.

Last night’s asado left me with a steak so tender, each slice melted like butter, the chimichurri adding a bright, herby contrast. Try serving it over a bed of crispy roasted potatoes for a hearty meal that’ll transport you straight to Argentina.

Steak Diane with Mushroom Sauce

Growing up, Sunday dinners were a big deal in my house, and nothing says celebration like a perfectly cooked Steak Diane with Mushroom Sauce. It’s a dish that feels fancy but is surprisingly simple to make, especially when you’re craving something rich and comforting.

Ingredients

• 2 boneless beef steaks (about 1 inch thick, preferably ribeye or sirloin)
• 1 tbsp unsalted butter (creamy and rich)
• 2 tbsp olive oil (extra virgin, for a fruity depth)
• 1 cup sliced mushrooms (cremini, for their earthy flavor)
• 1/4 cup finely chopped shallots (sweet and mild)
• 1/2 cup beef broth (rich and savory)
• 1/4 cup heavy cream (luxuriously thick)
• 1 tbsp Dijon mustard (tangy and sharp)
• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce (deep and umami-packed)
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper (to season)
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for a bright finish)

Instructions

1. Season both sides of the steaks generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, about 2 minutes.
3. Add the steaks to the skillet and cook for 4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until your desired doneness. Tip: Avoid moving the steaks too much to get a perfect sear.
4. Transfer the steaks to a plate and tent with foil to keep warm.
5. In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add shallots and mushrooms, sautéing until the mushrooms are golden and the shallots are translucent, about 5 minutes. Tip: Don’t overcrowd the pan to ensure the mushrooms brown nicely.
6. Stir in the beef broth, heavy cream, Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a simmer and cook until the sauce thickens slightly, about 3 minutes. Tip: Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if necessary before adding the steaks back in.
7. Return the steaks to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them, and heat for 1 minute.
8. Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.

This Steak Diane is a showstopper with its creamy, mushroom-laden sauce clinging to each tender bite. Try serving it over a bed of buttery mashed potatoes or alongside crisp green beans for a meal that’s as beautiful as it is delicious.
