Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the Steak
  • 2 pieces ribeye steaks (about 1 inch thick)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 sprigs fresh rosemary (or 1 tsp dried)
For the Shrimp
  • 1 pound large shrimp (peeled and deveined)
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 tablespoon juice of 1 lemon
  • Fresh parsley (for garnish)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Begin by seasoning your ribeye steaks generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat in a heavy skillet or cast-iron pan.
Cooking the Steak
  1. Once the oil is shimmering, add the steaks and cook each side for about 4-5 minutes for medium-rare.
  2. Add the minced garlic and rosemary to infuse additional flavor as the steaks cook.
Cooking the Shrimp
  1. Let the steaks rest for a few minutes, then melt the butter in another pan over medium heat.
  2. Add the shrimp to the pan, sprinkle with paprika, and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until pink and opaque.
  3. Add the lemon juice to the shrimp for a zesty flavor.
Serving
  1. Plate the ribeye steak alongside a generous helping of shrimp, garnished with fresh parsley.

Notes

Cooking the steak and shrimp simultaneously requires good timing. Let the steak rest to lock in juices. If the shrimp sauce looks clumpy, don't worry—it's part of the charm!
