Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Season the ribeye steaks generously with salt and pepper.
- Wrap each ribeye steak with four slices of beef bacon, securing the ends with toothpicks if necessary.
- In a large oven-safe skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the bacon-wrapped ribeye steaks and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and cook for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the steaks reach your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer for accuracy (130°F for medium-rare).
- While the steaks are in the oven, prepare the Cajun shrimp. In a separate skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the shrimp to the skillet, sprinkle with Cajun seasoning, and cook for 2-3 minutes until they turn pink and opaque. Remove from heat and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the trimmed asparagus and season with salt and pepper. Sauté for about 5 minutes, or until tender but still crisp.
- Once the ribeye steaks are done, remove them from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes.
- To serve, place the ribeye steak on a plate, top with Cajun shrimp, and arrange the sautéed asparagus alongside. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges.
Notes
For a spicier version, add more Cajun seasoning to the shrimp. Ensure the shrimp are not overcooked to maintain their tenderness.
