Ingredients

1 ribeye steak, 1-inch thick, about 12 oz (340 g)
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 medium red onion, sliced
Salt to taste
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 tbsp (30 ml) olive oil
2 tbsp (28 g) unsalted butter
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

1. **Prepare the Steak:** Season the ribeye steak generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper on both sides. Let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to ensure even cooking.
   
2. **Sear the Steak:** Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once shimmering, add the ribeye steak. Sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until a crust forms and it reaches your desired level of doneness. Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest.

3. **Prepare the Aromatics:** Reduce the skillet heat to medium. Add the butter, minced garlic, and sliced red onions to the same pan. Cook until the onions are softened and the garlic is fragrant but not burned, about 3-5 minutes.

4. **Combine and Serve:** Return the ribeye steak to the skillet, spoon the garlic butter and onion mixture over the top to coat. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy your classic garlic butter ribeye with your choice of sides.
