- Ribeye steak350 g (12.5 oz)
- Butter20 g (1.5 tbsp)

Instructions
- Salt the steak well. If you have time, let it sit out for 30 minutes first so it cooks more evenly.
- Sear in a smoking-hot cast iron skillet, 2–3 minutes per side.
- Lower the heat, add the butter and baste the steak continuously for 1–2 minutes. Take it off at 63 °C (145 °F) inside, or at 54 °C (130 °F) if you like it medium-rare.
- Rest for 5 minutes, slice against the grain and pour over the butter.
