Here's what you'll need:

Ingredients:

For the Parsley Butter:

  • We've got a separate recipe for this amazing herb butter [link to your herb butter recipe here]. Make it ahead of time if you can - it stays fresh in the fridge for up to 5 days!

For the Marinade:

  • 1/3 cup soy sauce (adds a savory kick)
  • 1/3 cup olive oil (keeps things moist)
  • 2 tablespoons honey (for a touch of sweetness)
  • 2 tablespoons minced ginger (adds a lovely zing)
  • 1 tablespoon freshly cracked black pepper (for a peppery bite)
  • 1 crumbled bouillon cube (optional, adds extra depth of flavor)
  • 1 clove garlic, finely minced (because garlic makes everything better!)

For the Steaks:

  • 2 Ribeye steaks (or your favorite cut!)

Let's Get Cooking!

  1. Marinate those Steaks: First, grab a zip-lock bag and toss in all the marinade ingredients. Then, add your steaks and make sure they're nice and coated. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes at room temperature (don't skip this step - it tenderizes the meat!).
  2. Grill Time! Heat up your grill or broiler to medium heat. Once it's nice and hot, throw on those marinated steaks. Tip: Save that leftover marinade in a bowl (we might use it later!). Cook your steaks to your desired doneness - rare, medium, or well-done, it's all up to you!
  3. Melty Herb Butter Bliss: Once your steaks are perfectly cooked, take them off the heat and top each one with a generous pat of that amazing herb butter we made. Watch it melt and infuse your steak with incredible flavor. Now that's what I'm talking about!
  4. Bonus Round (Optional): For our low-carb and keto friends, simply skip the honey in the marinade. Plus, did you know you can turn that leftover marinade into a tasty sauce? Just pour it into a saucepan and simmer over low-medium heat until it thickens up. Drizzle it over your steak for an extra flavor boost!

There you have it!  These juicy ribeyes with melty herb butter are sure to impress. So fire up the grill, grab your favorite sides, and enjoy a delicious and satisfying healthy dinner steak!

Ribeye Recipe Variations and Tips:

Flavorful Marinade Twists:

Go Asian-inspired: Swap the soy sauce for low-sodium tamari, add a splash of rice vinegar, and top with sesame seeds and thinly sliced scallions instead of parsley butter.

Spicy kick: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a chopped fresh jalapeño to the marinade for a spicy kick.

Herbivore option: Marinate portobello mushrooms in the same marinade for a delicious vegetarian alternative.

Herb Butter Remixes:

Garlic overload: Add roasted garlic cloves to your herb butter for an intense garlic flavor.

Citrusy twist: Zest in some lemon or orange zest for a bright and refreshing flavor.

Blue cheese lovers: Crumble some blue cheese into your softened butter for a richer and tangier taste.

Cooking Tips for Perfect Steaks:

Room temperature is key: Take your steaks out of the fridge 30 minutes before cooking to ensure even cooking.

Sear for flavor: Get your grill or pan scorching hot before searing the steaks for a nice crust.

Don't overcook: Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature for your desired doneness: 125°F for rare, 135°F for medium-rare, 145°F for medium, and 160°F for well-done.

Let it rest: Once cooked, tent your steaks with foil and let them rest for 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.

Side Dish Inspiration:

Grilled vegetables like asparagus, zucchini, or bell peppers are a perfect accompaniment.

Creamy mashed potatoes or roasted sweet potato fries add a satisfying starch.

A simple green salad with a light vinaigrette keeps things healthy and fresh.

Leftover Magic:

Thinly sliced leftover steak can be used for steak fajitas or delicious steak sandwiches.

Cube leftover steak and toss it into an omelet or scramble for a protein-packed breakfast.

Make a steak salad with leftover steak, mixed greens, crumbled blue cheese, and a vinaigrette for a quick and easy lunch.

With these variations and tips, you can transform this recipe into endless flavorful ribeye experiences!
