Pork Ribeye Recipe

This seared honey garlic pork ribeye steak is a fantastic weeknight dinner option. Packed with flavor and incredibly easy to prepare, this dish is sure to become a new favorite. The pork ribeye is a cut similar to a ribeye steak from beef, but with a slightly different flavor profile. It's known for its tenderness and rich marbling, making it perfect for searing. The simple honey garlic sauce complements the pork beautifully, adding a touch of sweetness and savory depth.
This recipe is perfect for those who are new to cooking or short on time. With just a few ingredients and minimal prep work, you can have a delicious and satisfying meal on the table in under 30 minutes.

Ingredients

• 2 bone-in pork ribeye steaks (about 1-inch thick)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/4 cup honey
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sriracha (optional)
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• Salt, to taste

Directions

1. Pat the pork ribeye steaks dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt and black pepper.
2. Heat olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the pork ribeye steaks for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
3. In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, sriracha (if using), lemon juice, and garlic. Pour the sauce over the seared pork ribeye steaks in the skillet.
4. Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until slightly thickened, basting the steaks occasionally.
5. Remove the pork ribeye steaks from the skillet and transfer them to a plate. Tent with foil and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
6. Spoon the remaining sauce from the skillet over the pork ribeye steaks. Serve immediately.
7. Tips:
8. For a thicker sauce, you can add a cornstarch slurry (1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 1 tablespoon water) to the sauce and cook until it thickens.
9. If you don't have a cast-iron skillet, you can use a regular skillet. However, a cast-iron skillet will help to sear the steaks perfectly.
10. You can also use boneless pork ribeye steaks for this recipe. The cooking time may vary slightly, so be sure to use a meat thermometer to check for doneness. The internal temperature of the pork ribeye steaks should reach 145°F (63°C) for safe consumption.
