How to Cook Ribeye Steak in the Oven
Ribeye steak is a flavorful and tender cut of beef that is a favorite among steak lovers. Cooking ribeye steak in the oven is a great option when you want to enjoy a delicious steak dinner without firing up the grill.
Ingredients:
- 1-2 ribeye steaks
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: garlic, rosemary, and thyme
Instructions:
1. Preparation:
Remove the ribeye steak from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Seasoning:
Brush the ribeye steak with olive oil and season it generously with salt and pepper. For extra flavor, you can add minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme.
3. Searing:
Heat a cast-iron skillet over high heat on the stovetop. Once the skillet is hot, sear the ribeye steak for 2-3 minutes on each side to create a nice crust.
4. Oven Cooking:
Transfer the skillet with the ribeye steak to the preheated oven. Cook the steak for about 5-7 minutes for medium-rare doneness, or longer if you prefer your steak more well-done.
5. Resting:
Remove the ribeye steak from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a juicier and more flavorful steak.
