Ingredients
Grilled Ribeye:
- 4 ribeye steaks
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme, chopped
- Zest of 1 lemon
- ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons sea salt
- 1 tablespoon crushed black pepper
Gorgonzola Butter:
- 2 tablespoons crumbled Gorgonzola
- 2 tablespoons roasted garlic*, crushed
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 stick unsalted butter, room temperature
Preparation
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Marinate the steaks in the thyme, lemon zest, olive oil, salt and pepper. Allow to rest at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before grilling.
To make the Gorgonzola butter, fold the Gorgonzola, sea salt and roasted garlic into the butter, and refrigerate while the steaks are grilling.
Grill steaks over direct heat for 5–7 minutes per side for medium-rare. Serve with about 1 tablespoon of the Gorgonzola butter slathered on top.
*To roast garlic, cut the top ½ inch off the head of garlic, drizzle with a teaspoon of oil, season with salt and pepper and wrap tightly in foil. Roast in a 350°F oven for 30-45 minutes, until golden brown. You can roast the garlic up to 3 days ahead of time.
