Ingredients
Scale
- 1 beef Ribeye Steak
- 16 extra-large shrimp, deveined with tails on or off
- 5 tbsp unsalted butter, softened and divided
- 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 3 tbsp olive oil, divided
- 12 spears asparagus, trimmed
- sea salt, to taste
Instructions
- Step: At least 30 minutes before cooking make sure your shrimp have been thawed.
- Step: Make the garlic butter by mixing 4 tablespoons of butter, garlic, and chopped parsley together in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
- Step: Heat a large grill pan or cast iron pan over high heat. Lightly grease the pan with oil. Pat steaks dry with a paper towel. Brush each side lightly with ½ tbsp of oil and generously season with salt.
- Step: Sear the steak for 3-5 minutes on each side until browned and cooked to desired doneness as measured with an instant-read or oven-proof thermometer. Transfer the steak to a warm plate. Spread 1 tablespoon of butter all over the steak. Tent it with foil and let it rest for at least 5 minutes while you prep the rest.
- Step: While steaks are resting, wipe down the pan and melt 2 tablespoons of butter with 1 tablespoon of olive oil on medium-low heat. Add asparagus and 4 tablespoons of water. Cook the trimmed asparagus for 5 minutes, rotating every minute. Season with salt. Remove to serving platter.
- Step: Season shrimp with salt on both sides. Wipe down the same pan, bring the pan to medium heat, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes, flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
- Step: Add the shrimp to a serving plate. Cut the steak into thin strips against the grain, add to the serving platter along with shrimp and asparagus. Drizzle with the leftover pan juices and melted herbed garlic butter.
Notes
Ensure shrimp are completely thawed and patted dry before cooking. Ribeye can be replaced with Strip, Sirloin, T-bone, Eye fillet, Scotch fillet, or Porterhouse steaks. Resting the steak for 5-10 minutes is essential for tenderness and juiciness.
