For the Steak
  • 2 pieces Ribeye Steak Choose high-quality steaks for the best flavor and tenderness.

  • 1/4 cup Breadcrumbs Provides the perfect crunch; select plain or seasoned ones.
  • 2 tablespoons Melted Butter Binds the mixture and enhances richness; can swap for olive oil for a lighter option.
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder Boosts savory flavors; fresh minced garlic can be used but adjust to taste.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Essential seasoning for steak; use coarse salt for better crust adhesion.

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Pat the ribeye steaks dry with paper towels, then season generously with salt and pepper. Let rest for about 10 minutes.
  2. Heat a cast iron skillet over high heat for 3–5 minutes. Add olive oil and sear the steaks for about 2 minutes on each side.
  3. Mix blue cheese crumbles, breadcrumbs, melted butter, and garlic powder in a bowl until it resembles wet sand. Set aside.
  4. Press the blue cheese mixture firmly onto the top of each steak.
  5. Bake the skillet in a preheated oven at 400°F for 5–7 minutes, watching for the crust to be golden and bubbly.
  6. Allow the steaks to rest for 3 minutes before slicing and serving.
