  • 2 pieces ribeye steaks (1-inch thick)
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes

  1. Pat steaks dry and season both sides with salt and pepper. Let them rest at room temperature for 20–30 minutes.
  2. In a small saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Add garlic, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, smoked paprika, red pepper flakes, parsley, and chives. Simmer gently for 2–3 minutes, then remove from heat.

  4. Sear steaks for 3–4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer for desired doneness.

Notes

For a different texture, consider using flank or sirloin steak. Add herbs like thyme or rosemary for extra flavor. Store leftovers tightly wrapped and reheat gently to maintain juiciness.
