Ribeye steaks are often regarded as one of the finest cuts of beef, and for good reason. Known for their exceptional marbling, tenderness, and rich flavor, ribeyes are a favorite among steak lovers. The marbling, which refers to the streaks of fat interspersed within the muscle, contributes to the steak's juiciness and flavor. When cooked, this fat melts into the meat, imparting a buttery texture that enhances the overall eating experience.

Ingredients
  

2 ribeye steaks (about 1 inch thick)

Salt and black pepper, to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled

1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves (or 1 teaspoon dried thyme)

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

1 tablespoon unsalted butter

1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Steaks: Season both sides of the ribeye steaks generously with salt and black pepper. Let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking.

    Cook the Steaks: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steaks to the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until your preferred doneness is reached. Once finished, transfer the steaks to a plate and cover them loosely with foil to keep warm.

      Make the Gorgonzola Sauce: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the minced garlic, sautéing for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Pour in the heavy cream and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring often until it thickens slightly.

        Add the Cheese: Stir in the crumbled Gorgonzola cheese, thyme, and balsamic vinegar. Keep stirring until the cheese is melted and the sauce is creamy and well-combined.

          Finishing Touch: Add the butter to the sauce and stir until melted. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

            Serve: Slice the steaks if desired and plate them. Generously spoon the Gorgonzola sauce over the steaks. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.

              Enjoy: Serve immediately with your choice of sides, such as mashed potatoes or sautéed vegetables.
