HOW TO MAKE THE PERFECT STEAK WITH GARLIC BUTTER, IF YOU LIKED IT SAY HELLO
INGREDIENTS:
- 4 (12-ounce) rib-eye steaks*, 1 1/4-inch-thick, at room temperature
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
FOR THE GARLIC COMPOUND BUTTER
-
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley leaves
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 1 teaspoon thyme, chopped
- 1 teaspoon rosemary, chopped
- 1 teaspoon basil, chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- Pinch of cayenne pepper
DIRECTIONS:
- To make the garlic compound butter, combine butter, parsley, garlic, lemon zest, thyme, rosemary, basil, salt, pepper and cayenne pepper in a medium bowl. Transfer mixture to parchment paper; shape into a log. Roll in parchment to 1 1/2 inches in diameter, twisting the ends to close. Refrigerate until ready to use, up to 1 week.*
- Preheat oven to broil. Place an oven-proof skillet in the oven.
- Using paper towels, pat both sides of the steak dry. Drizzle with olive oil; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Remove skillet from the oven and heat over medium-high heat.
- Place the steak in the middle of the skillet and cook until a dark crust has formed, about 1 minute. Using tongs, flip, and cook for an additional 60 seconds.
- Place skillet into the oven and cook until desired doneness is reached, about 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, flipping once. Let rest for 3-5 minutes.
- Serve immediately with garlic compound butter.
NOTES:
*T-bone, filet mignon or New York strip steak can also be used.
