Ingredients

  • 2 ribeye steaks (about 1-inch thick)
  • 1/2 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 4 tbsp butter, divided
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 tsp paprika (optional, for shrimp)
  • Lemon wedges, for serving

Instructions

  1. Season both sides of ribeye steaks with salt and pepper. Let them sit at room temperature while preparing the shrimp.
  2. Season shrimp with salt, pepper, and paprika if using.
  3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear steaks for 3–4 minutes per side for medium-rare or longer for desired doneness.
  4. Reduce heat to medium. Add half of the butter and half of the garlic to the skillet. Baste steaks with garlic butter for 1 minute, then remove and let rest.
  5. Add remaining butter and garlic to the skillet. Add shrimp and sauté for 1–2 minutes per side until pink and cooked through.
  6. Return steaks briefly to the skillet to warm through.
  7. Serve steaks and shrimp hot, garnished with parsley and lemon wedges.

Notes

  • Swap ribeye with New York strip or filet mignon.
  • Add red pepper flakes for extra heat.
  • Grill steak and shrimp instead of pan-searing for a smokier flavor.
  • Make garlic butter ahead and refrigerate until needed.
