Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 1 pound boneless rib eye steak
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 Tablespoons Kerrygold garlic and herb butter, plus more for serving optional

Method
 

  1. Remove steak from package, pat dry, and place on a plate. Refrigerate, uncovered, for 2 hours before cooking.
  2. Heat a heavy skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Sprinkle steak thoroughly with salt and pepper. Trim off any extra fat from steak. Place steak in skillet with fattest side down; cook until fat is browned, about 2 minutes. Continue cooking until steak is browned, about 2 minutes.
  3. Add butter to skillet and cook until butter is browned. Turn steak over and cook, basting with browned butter, for 2 minutes more. Remove from skillet to a plate. Tent with foil, and rest steak for 7 minutes to absorb juice. Serve steak with a pat of butter.
