Ingredients
- 4 6-to-8- ounce Coulotte Steaks
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 6 garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 10 sprigs of fresh thyme
- sea salt and fresh cracked pepper
Instructions
- Season the Coulotte steak on both sides with salt and pepper
- Next, add the olive oil to a large frying pan over high heat until it begins to smoke lightly.
- Place the steaks into the pan and immediately turn the heat down to medium-high. Be sure not to crowd the pan to sear the steak, not steam it.
- Add in the garlic cloves, fresh thyme, and unsalted butter.
- Cook the steaks for 1 minute before moving them around the pan to ensure it becomes browned on every square millimeter of the steak.
- After 2-3 minutes of cooking, flip the steak over and repeat the process. I like adding herbs and garlic on top of the steak while moving it around in the pan.
- Remove the steak after 2-3 minutes of cooking on the other side and set it on a cutting board or plate for 3-4 minutes to rest.
- I like to Slice the steaks thin and, on a bias, serve it with optional roasted garlic butter.

Notes
- Make-Ahead: Seared steak is meant to be eaten as soon as it is done cooking.
- How to Reheat: This recipe does not reheat well, but if you do need to reheat it, then re-sear it in a hot pan with lightly smoked oil until warm.
- How to Store: Cover and keep in the refrigerator for 3 days. This recipe will not freeze well.
- Some things I prefer to cook with are olive, ghee, clarified butter, or beef tallow. Do not be limited by these, and please cook with your desired fat or oil.
- I like adding herbs and garlic to the steak while moving it around in the pan.
- If you feel like you may have cooked it a bit too long, set it upright when resting it to help heat escape more quickly
- When the steaks are smaller in weight, you may need to adjust cooking times by 1 minute per side.
