Ingredients
  

  • 1 large thick rib-eye steak approx. 3 lb / 1500g, tomahawk rib-eye recommended
  • 2 onions halved horizontally
  • 4 garlic cloves smashed with peel on
  • 2 teaspoons fresh cracked black pepper divided
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 crumbled beef bouillon cube optional
  • 1/3 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup melted butter or olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon hot sauce e.g., Sriracha
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon flat-leaf Italian parsley chopped
  • 1 tablespoon curly parsley chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon red chili pepper flakes optional

Instructions
 

Prepare the steak:

  • Take the steak out of the refrigerator 1–2 hours before cooking to bring it to room temperature. Pat dry with paper towels.

Preheat the oven:

  • Set oven to broil mode at 500ºF (260ºC).

Season the steak:

  • Generously season the steak with salt, pepper, and the crumbled beef bouillon cube if using.

Broil the steak:

  • Place smashed garlic cloves and onion halves in a baking pan and set the steak on top (the onions act as a roasting rack). Broil for 5–7 minutes on the top rack, flip the steak, and broil another 5 minutes.

Finish roasting:

  • Lower the oven temperature to 400ºF (200ºC) and continue roasting the steak for another 10–12 minutes, until the desired doneness. Use an instant-read thermometer:
  • 125ºF (51ºC) for medium-rare
  • 135ºF (57ºC) for medium

Rest the steak:

  • Remove from oven, tent loosely with foil, and let rest for 10 minutes.
  • Prepare the herb butter sauce:
  • Meanwhile, mix the soy sauce, melted butter, hot sauce, minced garlic, chopped parsley, remaining black pepper, and red chili flakes together in a bowl.

Serve:

  • Slice the steak, removing the bone first if necessary. Drizzle generously with the herb butter sauce before serving. Enjoy!
