BEST RECIPE - BUTTER BASTED RIB EYE

The thing about a steak cooked on the stove top…a perfect piece of meat basted in a mixture of foamy butter, sprigs of thyme and rosemary, and fresh garlic…is that you’re treated to a multi-sensory experience. It hits every note. And it’s quite wonderful.

Dom began by prepping the steaks with olive oil and seasoning them with salt and freshly ground pepper. He let the meat stand at room temperature for about 30 minutes.

In a large cast iron skillet, he heated up the olive oil on medium, until it began to shimmer.
Next, added the steaks and cooked them over high heat until crusty on the bottom, about 5 minutes.
