[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Needs a very hot pan. Season the meat well. Cook to medium rare. Take it out, drizzle with some olive oil and lemon juice, and letit rest for 5-10 minutes.

Towards the end of the cooking time you can add some crushed garlic and herbs and a chunk of butter and baste the meat for the last minute or two if you want. I generally don’t bother.

I also don’t bother with reverse sear, sous vide or any of the other techniques. They are great for tougher cuts of meat, but for something like ribeye i think they are unnecessary.

If it comes out leathery it sounds like you may be overcooking?[/quote]

+1 to all of this. Preheat the pan over medium high for several minutes; you want it to be really hot for a good sear. Take the steak out of the fridge about an hour before you plan to cook it. I generally salt it right before it goes on the pan.

After a few minutes of preheating, add neutral oil to the pan. Once it’s shimmering and the pan is starting to smoke, turn the heat down to medium and put the steak on the pan. Let it sit for 2ish minutes, then flip. If your steak is an inch thick or thinner, you don’t need to put it in the oven. Make sure to let it rest once you take it off the pan. [/quote]
