Ingredients
  

  • 2 ribeye steaks

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions
 

Prepare the Marinade

  • Add olive oil, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice and Dijon mustard into a bowl. Whisk everything together until smooth and well combined for rich balanced steak flavor.

Add Herbs and Seasonings

  • Mix minced garlic, paprika, black pepper, salt, rosemary and thyme into the marinade. Stir carefully so the herbs spread evenly throughout the flavorful homemade steak mixture completely.

Prepare the Steaks

  • Pat the ribeye steaks dry using paper towels. Dry steak creates a better crust while cooking and helps the marinade stick properly onto the meat surface evenly.

Marinate the Steak

  • Place steaks inside a zip-top bag or shallow container. Pour the marinade over the meat completely. Cover well and refrigerate for at least one hour before cooking.

Bring Steak to Room Temperature

  • Remove the marinated steak from the refrigerator twenty minutes before cooking. This helps the steak cook evenly and keeps the inside juicy and tender after searing properly.

Heat the Pan or Grill

  • Place a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Let it become very hot before adding steak. High heat creates a beautiful golden crust while locking juices inside.

Cook the Steak

  • Place steaks carefully onto the hot pan. Cook each side for about four minutes depending on thickness and desired doneness. Avoid moving the steak during cooking time.

Add Butter While Cooking

  • Add butter into the pan during the final cooking minute. Spoon melted butter over the steaks repeatedly for richer flavor, extra moisture, and delicious restaurant-style steak texture.

Rest the Steak

  • Transfer cooked steak onto a cutting board carefully. Let it rest for five minutes before slicing. Resting keeps the juices inside and improves the final texture greatly.

Slice and Serve

  • Slice the steak against the grain using a sharp knife. Serve warm with your favorite side dishes for a flavorful homemade steak dinner everyone will enjoy completely.

Notes

  • Use fresh herbs for better flavor.
  • Marinate steak for at least one hour.
  • Bring steak to room temperature before cooking.
  • Use high heat for a crispy crust.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan.
  • Let steak rest before slicing.
  • Ribeye steak works best for juicy texture.
  • Spoon butter over steak while cooking.
