Make the ultimate steak recipe. This garlic herb ribeye is juicy and seared to perfection right on your stove. It’s ready in 15 minutes!
Ribeye Steak Recipe
When you want a really juicy, tender cut of steak, grab a ribeye. It’s going to be priced higher than other steaks, but it’s worth every penny. This cut comes from the rib section, so it has the perfect texture.
It’s usually about 1-2 inches thick and you can buy either bone-in or boneless ribeye. Either choice is perfect for this recipe.
And honestly, you can make this recipe with other cuts of steak, too. Try it with sirloin steak or porterhouse. Just remember that flank steak is one of the toughest types of steak and will require some tenderizing first..
Keto Steak Recipe
This is the perfect recipe to make for your weekly meal prep. Steak will stay fresh in the refrigerator for up to three days. Then, you can either chop it up and eat it on top of a salad, or slice it thinly and use it in some fajitas.
You can also use leftover ribeye steak in my keto beef bulgogi recipe.
Garlic Herb Ribeye
How can you tell when a steak is safe to eat and done cooking? The best way to tell when a steak is done is by using an internal food thermometer.
Follow these temps when you make garlic herb ribeye.
- 130°F for medium-rare
- 135°F medium
- 145°F medium well
- 150°F for well done
The internal temperature will keep rising even after you remove the steak from the grill or skillet, so I like to remove it when it is a few degrees under my preferred done-ness.
Skillet Steak Recipe
You can make this steak on your grill, on an indoor grill (like a George Foreman grill), or use a skillet. I chose to make this steak in my skillet and it turned out juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside.
Ribeye is already a very tender cut, but if you want to tenderize it a bit more, use these methods:
- Use a mallet. This means you literally hit it with a mallet to break up the fibers in the meat. This helps it cook in a way that makes it a lot more tender.
- Salt the meat. Salt actually draws out moisture and creates a natural brine.
- Let it come to room temperature before you cook it. Let your steak sit on the counter for 30 minutes before you cook it. This will help it cook more evenly, which will keep it tender.
What To Eat With Steak
Steak is usually served with steamed veggies and potatoes. You can stills serve it with your favorite steamed veggies, but you’ll have to replace the potatoes with something that is low-carb.
I like to serve steak with a side salad like copycat Olive Garden salad and some mushroom cauliflower rice. This steak will also taste amazing with some garlic knots and some cauliflower mash on the side.
Garlic butter zucchini and squash is another effortless side dish. It’s high in fiber and really low-carb. Instead of rolls, serve some rosemary cloud bread.
