GRILLED RIB EYE STEAKS ENHANCED WITH GARLIC AND OLIVE OIL

SERVES 4

I add a marinade to tougher cuts of steak to help tenderize them. But something like a rib eye is tender by itself and can be grilled as is. The garlic in this recipe adds a subtle flavor. The oil distributes that flavor, as well as helping to sear the outside of the steaks and prevent sticking. If you don't have an outdoor grill, make this indoors on a grill pan, in a skillet, or under a broiler.

INGREDIENTS

4 rib eye steaks, at least 1-inch thick

4 garlic cloves, minced

3 tablespoons olive oil

Salt and pepepr to taste

Trim the steaks of excess fat. Place on a large platter in one layer. Mix together the garlic and oil. Pour over the steaks, turning to coat both sides. Let set just until grill is heated to high heat. Season steaks with salt and pepper. Grill over direct heat until desired doneness, about 4 minutes per side for rare, depending on thickness. Remove from grill. Let rest about 5 minutes before serving.
