Ingredients
  

For the Steak
  • 2 tbsp olive oil for searing
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • 2 tbsp butter for richness
  • 1 lb asparagus trimmed
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • Fresh parsley chopped, for garnish

Equipment

  • Grill or Stovetop Skillet
  • Skillet

Method
 

  1. Step 1: Take the ribeye steaks out of the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes. Preheat your grill or stovetop skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Step 2: Rub both sides of the steaks with olive oil, then season generously with salt and pepper. Sprinkle the minced garlic, garlic powder, and onion powder over the steaks.
  3. Step 3: Once the grill or skillet is hot, place the steaks on it. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip. Add the butter and rosemary to the pan. As the butter melts, spoon it over the steaks for added flavor. Cook for another 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, or until your desired doneness.
  4. Step 4: While the steaks are cooking, heat a separate skillet over medium heat. Add the trimmed asparagus to the skillet and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until tender-crisp. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar and honey, stirring to coat. Cook for an additional minute.
  5. Step 5: Once the steaks are done, remove them from the heat and let them rest for about 5 minutes. Slice the steaks against the grain, if desired, and serve alongside the sautéed asparagus. Garnish with fresh parsley for an added touch.

Notes

If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, gently warm in a skillet over low heat to maintain tenderness.
