Ingredients
 - 1 (16-to-18-ounce) rib eye steak
 - Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
 - 2 thyme sprigs
 - 1 garlic clove, smashed
 - 1 (4-inch) rosemary sprig
 - 1 (3-inch) piece lemon zest
 - 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
 - 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
 - Flaky sea salt, for garnish
Directions
1. Season the steak liberally with salt and pepper. Place in a vacuum-seal bag with the thyme, garlic, rosemary and lemon and vacuum seal closed. Alternatively, place the ingredients in a sealable plastic bag and dip the bag into a large bowl of water to displace the air before sealing shut.
2. Preheat a pot of water fitted with a sous-vide immersion circulator to 129° according to the manufacturer's directions. Cook the steak for 2 hours, making sure it is completely submerged in the water. Remove the bag from the pot and take the steak out of the bag, drying with paper towels.
3. In a large cast-iron skillet, heat the vegetable oil over high heat. Add the steak and cook, flipping once until seared on both sides, about 1 minute per side. Add the butter and baste the steak for 10 to 15 seconds more. Transfer to a board to rest for 5 minutes.
4. Slice the steak and garnish with flaky sea salt, then serve.
Enjoy!
