📝 Instructions

1. Prepare the Steaks:
Pat the ribeye steaks dry with a paper towel 🧻.
Generously season both sides with salt 🧂 and freshly ground black pepper 🌶️.

2. Heat the Skillet:
Heat olive oil 🛢️ in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat 🔥 until shimmering.

3. Sear the Steaks:
Add the steaks 🥩 to the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side, depending on your preferred doneness. For medium-rare, cook until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (57°C) 🌡️.

4. Add Garlic Butter & Herbs:
Reduce the heat to medium 🔥 and add butter 🧈, minced garlic 🧄, rosemary 🌿, and thyme 🌿 to the skillet.
Tilt the pan slightly and spoon the melted butter and herbs over the steaks, basting them continuously for 1-2 minutes ⏱️.

5. Rest the Steaks:
Remove the steaks 🥩 from the skillet and let them rest on a plate for 5 minutes to retain their juices 💧.

6. Add Lemon Juice:
Squeeze the juice of 1/2 lemon 🍋 over the steaks for a bright, tangy finish 🌟.

7. Serve and Enjoy:
Plate the steaks 🥩, drizzle with the remaining garlic butter from the skillet 🧄, and serve hot with your favorite sides 🍽️.
