Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Thaw the shrimp in a bowl of cold water for about 30 minutes, ensuring they are deveined.
  2. Prepare the garlic butter by mixing 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter, finely chopped garlic, and fresh parsley in a small bowl. Refrigerate until needed.
  3. Preheat a grill or cast-iron pan over high heat and grease lightly with olive oil.
  4. Pat the ribeye steak dry with paper towels, brush with olive oil, and season generously with sea salt.
  5. Sear the ribeye steak for 3-5 minutes on each side, checking for desired doneness with a meat thermometer.
  6. Let the steak rest for about 5 minutes covered loosely with foil.
  7. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil in the pan, add trimmed asparagus and 4 tablespoons of water. Cook until bright green and tender.
  8. In the same pan, add remaining butter, a splash of olive oil, season shrimp, and sauté for 2-3 minutes on each side until pink and opaque.
  9. Slice the rested steak against the grain, and serve with shrimp and asparagus, drizzling garlic butter on top.
