This impressive rib-eye steak with bone marrow and radish salad is a masterclass in balancing rich, savoury flavours with fresh, crunchy textures. The bone-in rib-eye is pan-seared for a deep caramelised crust before being finished in the oven and served with indulgent marrow bones topped with a salty anchovy and caper dressing. It is a sophisticated dish that celebrates high-quality beef, perfect for those following a high-protein diet or anyone looking for a restaurant-standard meal at home.

How to make Rib Eye With Bone Marrow and Radish Salad
Back to contentsSeason steak with kosher salt and pepper. Let sit at room temperature 2 hours, or chill up to 12 hours.
Preheat oven to 149°C. Heat vegetable oil in a large ovenproof skillet, preferably cast-iron, over medium-high. Cook steak until deep golden brown, 5–8 minutes per side. Add butter and spoon over steak a few times. Transfer skillet to oven and roast steak until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 49°C for rare, 5–8 minutes. Transfer steak to a cutting board and let rest. Increase oven temperature to 218°C.
Combine anchovies, capers, and olive oil in a small bowl; season with kosher salt and pepper. Spread half of anchovy mixture onto cut sides of marrow bone. Roast bone on a rimmed baking sheet until top is browned and marrow is tender, 10–12 minutes.
Meanwhile, cut half of the radishes into quarters (leave the tops on, if using); trim and thinly slice remaining radishes crosswise. Toss radishes, celery leaves, parsley, lemon juice, and remaining anchovy mixture in a medium bowl. Season radish salad with kosher salt, pepper, and more lemon juice, if desired.
Cut steak off bone and slice 1/2" thick. Transfer meat to a platter, pour pan juices over, and sprinkle with sea salt. Serve alongside marrow bone, radish salad, and toast.
