There are many ways to cook a rib eye. I like mine with a decent char, and cooked medium. So far, the best recipe I’ve found was from the Wall Street Journal. Here’s my version with a side dish of roasted baby Bella mushrooms.
1 1.5 to 2 lb rib eye steak
kosher salt to taste
freshly ground pepper
canola oil
Directions
1. Season rib eye with salt and pepper on both sides. Let it rest until it reaches room temperature.
2. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
3. Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium high heat until it smokes.
4. Place the steak on the hot skillet and cook for 3 minutes on each side, turning only once.
5. When done, place pan in the oven and cook for about 5 minutes for medium, longer if you want the steak cooked more.
6. Remove pan from oven. Place meat in a plate and cover with aluminum foil and let it rest for 5 minutes.
7. Serve
