Ingredients
For the Steaks:
- 4 prime ribeye steaks (8 oz each), 1-inch thick
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 sprigs fresh thyme
- 2 cloves garlic, crushed
- Coarse sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper
For the Red Wine Jus:
- 1 cup red wine (Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot)
- 1 cup beef stock
- 2 shallots, minced
- 2 tablespoons cold butter
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the Roasted Vegetables:
- 1 pound baby potatoes, halved
- 1 bunch asparagus, trimmed
- 8 oz mushrooms, quartered
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Fresh rosemary sprigs
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the steaks: Remove steaks from refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking to bring to room temperature. Season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Start the vegetables: Preheat oven to 425°F. Toss potatoes with olive oil, garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Roast for 20 minutes, then add asparagus and mushrooms for the last 10 minutes.
- Heat the pan: Heat a cast iron skillet over high heat until smoking. Add olive oil and swirl to coat.
- Sear the steaks: Place steaks in the hot pan and sear for 3-4 minutes without moving them. This creates a beautiful crust.
- Flip and finish: Flip steaks and add butter, thyme, and garlic to the pan. Tilt pan and baste steaks with the aromatic butter for 3-4 minutes for medium-rare.
- Rest the steaks: Remove steaks to a warm plate and tent with foil. Let rest for 5 minutes to redistribute juices.
- Make the jus: In the same pan, add shallots and cook for 1 minute. Add wine and reduce by half. Add stock and thyme, reduce until syrupy. Whisk in cold butter and strain.
- Serve: Slice steaks against the grain, arrange with roasted vegetables, and drizzle with red wine jus.
Chef's Tips
- Use a meat thermometer: 125°F for rare, 135°F for medium-rare
- Don't press down on the steaks while cooking
- Let the pan get very hot before adding the steaks
- Resting is crucial - it allows juices to redistribute
- Save the pan drippings for the most flavorful jus
- Pair with a bold red wine like Cabernet Sauvignon
