Print Recipe

Gordon Ramsay’s Ribeye Steak is a premium, pan-seared steak cooked using high heat to develop a golden crust while keeping the inside tender and juicy. It is basted with butter, garlic, and fresh herbs for added depth of flavor. The ribeye cut, known for its marbling and richness, makes this steak exceptionally juicy and flavorful.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Steak

  • 1 ribeye steak (about 1–1.5 inches thick)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

For Basting and Flavor

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, smashed
  • 2 sprigs fresh thyme or rosemary

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Steak

  1. Pat the steak dry with paper towels to remove moisture, ensuring a good sear.
  2. Season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Step 2: Heat the Pan

  1. Heat a cast-iron skillet over high heat for 2-3 minutes until smoking hot.
  2. Add olive oil and swirl to coat the pan.

Step 3: Sear the Steak

  1. Place the ribeye in the pan and sear for 2-3 minutes without moving it.
  2. Flip the steak and sear for another 2-3 minutes until a crust forms.

Step 4: Baste with Butter and Herbs

  1. Reduce heat to medium, add butter, smashed garlic, and thyme or rosemary.
  2. Tilt the pan slightly and use a spoon to baste the steak with melted butter for 1-2 minutes.

Step 5: Cook to Desired Doneness

  1. Use a meat thermometer to check doneness:
    • Rare: 120-125°F (49-52°C)
    • Medium-rare: 130-135°F (54-57°C)
    • Medium: 140-145°F (60-63°C)
    • Medium-well: 150-155°F (65-68°C)
    • Well-done: 160°F+ (71°C+)

Step 6: Rest and Serve

  1. Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes.
  2. Slice against the grain and serve with your favorite sides.
