Description
A simple recipe for pan-seared steak infused with garlic and rosemary butter, delivering steakhouse-quality flavor at home.
Ingredients
- 2 lbs New York Strip Steaks (or your choice of steak)
- 1/2 tbsp vegetable oil (or any high-heat cooking oil)
- 1 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled and quartered
- 1 sprig fresh rosemary
Instructions
- Pat the steak dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and pepper.
- Heat a large cast-iron pan over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes and add vegetable oil.
- Add the steaks to the hot pan and sear for about 3-4 minutes per side until a brown crust forms, sear the edges for about 1 minute.
- Reduce heat to medium, add butter, garlic, and rosemary to the pan. Spoon melted butter over the steak until it reaches desired doneness.
- Transfer steak to a cutting board, cover loosely with foil, and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing against the grain.
Notes
Dry the steak before cooking for a better sear. Let it rest before slicing to lock in juices. Use fresh rosemary and garlic for the best flavor.
