Ingredients you will need:
* 2 large (16 to 18-ounce) bone-in rib-eye steaks
* 1 sprigs fresh rosemary
* 4 sprigs fresh thyme
* Extra-virgin olive oil
* Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
Bread crumb topping:
* 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
* 1 tablespoon butter
* 2 to 3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
* 2 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves removed
* 2 sprig fresh rosemary, leaves removed
* About 1 cup panko bread crumbs
* Salt and freshly cracked black pepper
Creamed rainbow chard:
* 1 large bunch Swiss chard, leafs removed from the stem and leaves chopped
* 2 cups heavy cream
* 2 fresh bay leaves
* 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
* 4 sprigs fresh thyme
* 2 to 3 cloves garlic, peeled
* Freshly grated Parmesan, to taste
* Salt and freshly cracked black pepper
* 1 lemon, juiced
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Take a cast iron pan and set over medium-high heat. Add a 2-count of olive oil and add rosemary and thyme. The herbs will begin to crackle as the oil heats up and the oil will be infused with the flavor. Remove the herbs from the pan and place onto a paper towel lined plate. Season the rib eyes well with salt and pepper and add to pan and brown for approximately 4 minutes. Turn the rib eye over and place the whole pan into the preheated oven, on the bottom shelf, for another 12 minutes for medium-rare. Add another 2 minutes for medium.
Place a saute pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil and butter. Once the butter has melted, add the garlic, thyme and rosemary leaves, and the panko and stir to combine. Once the bread crumbs are toasted, season with salt and pepper.
Place a saucepan of cream with bay leaves, rosemary, thyme and garlic over medium heat and simmer until reduced and thick. Blanch leaves in some salted boiling water until wilted. Remove the Swiss chard from the water and allow it to drain in a strainer. Push any excess water out of the Swiss chard using some paper towels. Set aside to dry at room temperature.
When ready, remove herbs and garlic from cream and fold in the Swiss chard. Add Parmesan, to taste, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Once steaks are done, remove from the oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes. Serve on a plate and top steak with creamed Swiss chard. Garnish with the toasted bread crumbs, lemon juice, and season with salt.

“Best way to cook ribeye steak is by frying rather than broiling; you sear it quicker and it keeps the juices in. Just season it (a little salt and pepper), heat your frying pan to medium or just a bit higher than medium. Melt just a little bit of butter in the frying pan so the steak doesn’t stick when it hits the pan. Then when the pan is heated, put in the steaks. Cook time depends on how thick the steak is and how you like them cooked. Saute some fresh mushrooms or onions to go with the steak. Don’t marinate Ribeyes because due to the higher fat content, the meat is very flavorful to begin with and if it is a strong tasting marinade, the meat will take on too much taste from the marinade. Ribeye is also normally very tender so do not use tenderizer on it either. Enjoy your ribeye nice and hot!”
