Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the pine nuts until golden brown, stirring frequently to prevent burning. This should take about 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the toasted pine nuts, chopped sage, grated Parmesan, breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.
- Pat the ribeye steaks dry with paper towels and season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.
- In an oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the ribeye steaks and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until a nice crust forms.
- Remove the skillet from heat and spread the pine nut and sage mixture evenly over the top of the steaks, pressing gently to adhere.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for about 8-10 minutes for medium-rare, or until the desired doneness is reached.
- While the steaks are baking, prepare the whipped brown butter. In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Continue cooking, swirling the pan occasionally, until the butter turns a deep golden brown and has a nutty aroma, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Once the steaks are done, remove them from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Drizzle the whipped brown butter over the top of the steaks.
- Garnish with fresh sage leaves if desired and serve immediately.
Notes
For added flavor, consider marinating the steaks in olive oil and herbs for a few hours before cooking.
