Preparation

1.
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
2.
Rub the steaks with olive oil and season them with salt and black pepper.
3.
Heat a cast-iron skillet over high heat until it's smoking hot.
4.
Sear the steaks for 2-3 minutes on each side to develop a crust.
5.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and cook the steaks for an additional 5-7 minutes for medium-rare, or until desired doneness.
6.
While the steaks are cooking, prepare the herb butter by combining the softened butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, thyme, and rosemary in a small bowl. Mix well.
7.
Remove the steaks from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes.
8.
Place a dollop of herb butter on top of each steak and allow it to melt over the meat.
9.
Serve the Delmonico steaks hot, allowing the herb butter to enhance the flavors.

Treat your ingredients with care...

Ribeye steak — Allow the steak to come to room temperature before cooking to ensure even cooking and a tender result.
Fresh herbs — Use fresh herbs for the herb butter to maximize the flavors. If unavailable, you can substitute with dried herbs, but reduce the quantity by half.

Tips & Tricks

For a more intense flavor, marinate the steaks in the olive oil, salt, and pepper for 1-2 hours before cooking.
Let the steaks rest after cooking to allow the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
Experiment with different herb combinations for the butter, such as adding a hint of lemon zest or a pinch of red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.

Serving advice

Serve the Delmonico steaks with a side of roasted vegetables or a fresh green salad to complement the richness of the steak. Garnish with additional fresh herbs for an elegant presentation.

Presentation advice

To present the Delmonico steaks, place them on a warm plate and drizzle any remaining herb butter from the skillet over the top. Sprinkle some freshly chopped herbs for a pop of color. Serve with confidence and let the flavors speak for themselves.
