Instructions

Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Season the ribeye steaks generously with salt and pepper. In an oven-safe skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat. Once the butter is foamy, add the steaks and sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they develop a beautiful, golden-brown crust.
In a separate baking dish, toss the halved Brussels sprouts with the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Place the dish in the preheated oven and roast for approximately 15-20 minutes, or until the sprouts are tender and slightly caramelized.
Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest for a few minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring a juicy result. Slice the steaks against the grain into thin strips.
Plate the sliced steak alongside the roasted Brussels sprouts. Drizzle any remaining garlic butter from the skillet over the steak slices.

Notes

To achieve your preferred level of doneness, use a meat thermometer. Aim for 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare, 140°F (60°C) for medium, and 150°F (66°C) for medium-well. High-quality steaks and fresh Brussels sprouts make a significant difference in flavor. When searing the steaks, ensure there’s enough space in the skillet to prevent overcrowding, which can lead to steaming rather than searing. Adjust the amount of minced garlic to your personal taste. You can go bolder or milder depending on your preference. Finally, don’t skip the resting step. It’s crucial for a juicy steak. Enjoy!
