Garlic Herb Butter Steak

 

 

Ingredients:

2 sirloin steaks (about 1-inch thick)

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

2 tbsp olive oil

3 tbsp unsalted butter

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 tsp fresh rosemary, chopped (or 1/2 tsp dried)

1 tsp fresh thyme, chopped (or 1/2 tsp dried)

1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional, for a little heat)

Instructions:

1. Pat steaks dry with paper towels and season both sides generously with salt and pepper.

2. Heat olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.

3. Sear the steaks for about 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare (adjust time based on your preferred doneness).

4. Reduce heat to low and add butter, garlic, rosemary, and thyme to the skillet.

5. Spoon the melted butter over the steaks repeatedly for about 1-2 minutes to infuse flavor.

6. Remove steaks from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
