Day 5: Ribeye Steak with Herb Sauce

I am going to break this day's meal into three posts since I tried 3 new recipes that all deserve their own special attention. The entire meal consisted to Puff Pastry Wrapped Asparagus, Scalloped Hasselback Potatoes, and a Ribeye with Herb Sauce. It seemed like as a whole the meal was an unhealthy version of what could have been potentially pretty diet. I only really liked the steak and herb sauce, but the bf really liked the potato and asparagus.

I figured--Why not play around with iMovie while keeping track of these meals.
I loved the steak with this herb sauce! The bf was less thrilled (he made the realization that he doesn't like uncooked sauces lol). I will definitely repeat this recipe (halved because it will just be for me).


Recipe for Ribeye Steak with Herb Sauce that is easy and delicious.

Original recipe
My recipe version:

Ribeye with Herb Sauce



Ingredients:
1 cup fresh basil leaves
1 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
2 tbsp. fresh oregano leaves
1 tsp. dried rosemary leaves
1 tsp. dried thyme leaves
1 tbsp. dried tarragon leaves
2 cloves garlic, minced
3⁄4 cup extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO)
salt and pepper, to taste
1 (24 oz.) 2"--3"-thick rib-eye, strip, or porterhouse steak

1. Measure out 1 cup of fresh Basil and 1 cup of fresh Parsley and chop together.
2. Mix all ingredients (except EVOO) together until evenly blended. Add EVOO to herb mixture and blend.
3. Let herb mixture stand for 1 hour.
4. Season steak then broil at 450F for 6 minutes per side (this is for my oven cooking to medium rare--yours may be slower or quicker so keep an eye on it)
5. Let steak rest for 5 minutes. Then trim fat and remove the bone.
6. Cut steak in strips and cover with herb sauce.
ENJOY!
