Instructions

  1. 01
    Pat ribeye steaks dry with paper towels. Using a sharp knife, cut a horizontal pocket into the side of each steak, being careful not to cut all the way through. Season steaks inside and out with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper.
  2. 02
    In a bowl, combine diced tomatoes, 1 tbsp basil, 1 tbsp parsley, 1 minced garlic clove, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp pepper. Toss with 1 tbsp olive oil. Fill each steak pocket with half the tomato mixture and secure edges with toothpicks.
  3. 03
    Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering. Sear steaks 3-4 minutes per side, turning once, until deeply browned. If needed, sear each edge for 30 seconds. Transfer steaks to a plate and tent with foil.
  4. 04
    Lower heat to medium. Add butter, shallot, and remaining garlic to the pan. Sauté 1 minute until fragrant, scraping up browned bits.
  5. 05
    Pour in white wine and simmer 1-2 minutes, scraping the pan, until reduced by half. Add beef broth and balsamic vinegar. Simmer 3-5 minutes, reducing by about a third.
  6. 06
    Stir in remaining basil and parsley. Return steaks (and any juices) to the skillet. Spoon jus over steaks and cook 1-2 minutes more until just heated through.
  7. 07
    Transfer steaks to a cutting board. Rest 5 minutes before slicing in half crosswise. Serve with pan jus spooned over.
