Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your skillet by placing it over high heat for about 5 minutes until it's smoking hot.
Generously season both sides of the ribeye steak with salt and freshly cracked black pepper.
Add a thin layer of high-temperature cooking oil to the hot skillet and sear the steak for 3-4 minutes on one side.
Flip the steak and sear the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes.
Reduce heat to medium, add unsalted butter and fresh herbs, and baste the steak for an extra 1-2 minutes.
Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest on a cutting board for 5-10 minutes.
Slice against the grain into thick pieces and serve warm with roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
