Ingredients:
- 2 Ribeye steaks (about 1 inch thick, approximately 14 oz or 400 g each)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (30 ml)
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt (5 g)
- 1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper (5 g)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder (5 g) (optional)
- Fresh herbs (e.g., rosemary or thyme, for garnish)
Instructions:
- Remove steaks from the fridge and allow them to come to room temperature (about 30 minutes).
- Pat steaks dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
- Brush both sides with olive oil and season generously with salt, pepper, and garlic powder (if using).
- Turn on the gas grill and preheat to high heat (about 450-500°F / 230-260°C).
- Oil the grill grates lightly to prevent sticking.
- Place steaks on the grill diagonally across the grates.
- Grill for 4-5 minutes or until a nice crust forms.
- Rotate the steaks 90 degrees to create crosshatch grill marks (optional). Grill for another 4-5 minutes.
- Flip the steaks and repeat grilling on the other side for an additional 3-5 minutes for medium-rare.
- Use a meat thermometer to check internal temperature: 125°F (51°C) for rare, 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare.
- Remove steaks from the grill and place on a cutting board.
- Cover loosely with aluminum foil and let rest for at least 5 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.
- Slice steaks against the grain, garnish with fresh herbs, and serve immediately.
