How To Cook Ribeye Steak In The Oven

Step 1

Very Important Tip: Make sure your steak has come to room temperature before cooking. Leave it uncovered on the counter for 30 minutes to 1 hour.

Step 2

Preheat the oven to 275°F. Season the steak with salt, smashed peeled garlic, and a few sprigs of thyme per side. Place a cooling rack on a cookie sheet and lay the steak on top. Bake in the oven on the middle rack for 30-40 minutes (thinner steak will take 30 minutes, thicker will bake for up to 40 minutes) or until it’s at the temperature you like.

Step 3

Remove the steak from the oven and allow it to rest for 15 minutes. Keep it warm by placing a loose piece of foil over top. Bake tomatoes while the steak rests.

Step 4

While the steak is resting, heat a cast iron skillet or grill over high heat. Sear the steak for 3-4 minutes per side, depending on how well done you like your steak.

Step 5

When it's done, add a few slices of compound butter on each steak. Transfer the steak from the pan to a cutting board. While preparing to serve, slice the meat against the grain to your desired thickness, or leave it uncut. Add to a plate, then drizzle with fresh chimichurri sauce and add the roasted tomatoes on the side

Step 6

Preheat the oven to 450°F.

Step 7

Add the tomatoes to a baking dish or a cast iron skillet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with sea salt.

Step 8

Bake for 15 minutes while the steak rests. Let cool for about 5 minutes before eating.
