Ingredients

• 2 ribeye steaks (1 inch thick)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup red wine (such as Cabernet Sauvignon)
• 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 pound asparagus, trimmed
• 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Season the ribeye steaks generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
3. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the steaks for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, then remove and let rest.
4. In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds. Pour in the red wine, scraping the bottom of the pan to deglaze. Add rosemary and simmer until reduced by half, about 5-7 minutes.
5. Stir in butter until melted and the sauce is smooth. Set aside.
6. Toss asparagus with balsamic vinegar, garlic powder, and onion powder. Spread on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 10-12 minutes.
7. Slice the steaks and serve topped with the red wine sauce alongside the roasted asparagus.
