Love is in the air, and things are heating up with one of New York City's hottest chefs.

Chef Jose Luis Chavez, co-founder and owner of Mission Ceviche, dropped by "GMA3" recently to show us how to make a delicious meal perfect for a romantic Valentine's Day dinner at home.

Jose Luiz Chavez's Heart Shaped Ribeye with Romesco

Steak Ingredients:
18 oz. ribeye, boneless, carefully butterflied while keeping the long side of the steak intact
1 lemon, juiced, no seeds
1 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tbsp. kosher salt
1 tsp. fresh cracked black pepper
2 tbsp. sweet butter, cut into small squares

Romesco Ingredients:
1/2 cup sliced almonds
1 clove garlic
1/2 tbsp. paprika
1/4 cup shallot
12 oz. canned or jarred, roasted red bell peppers, no liquid
1 tsp. granulated sugar
1/4 tbsp. salt
2 tbsp. sherry vinegar
8 oz. pureed canned tomatoes
1 cup olive oil

Directions:
Season the steak with the lemon and then with garlic, salt and pepper.
Preheat a large sauté pan on high heat for three minutes.
Add butter and melt and spread around the pan.
Place steak in pan and sear on high heat for four minutes on each side and then let rest for five minutes before serving.
While cooking the steak, combine all of the romesco ingredients in a food processor and blend until chunky or until desired texture.
Enjoy with the steak as a topping or a sauce.
