Prepare a sophisticated French dinner for two with a cote de boeuf topped with melting butter and fragrant herbs, sautéed blackberries with thyme, and roasted garlic. A cote de boeuf is a bone-in ribeye steak, so feel free to substitute the two cuts. The steak is seared whole in a hot skillet until golden brown, then finished in the oven for a few minutes. Ideally, serve medium rare, but you can cook it a little longer depending on your preference. Slice the steak thinly, slather it with fragrant butter and roasted garlic, and enjoy.
