Ingredients
- 1/2 lb (250 grams) American Wagyu Chuck Eye Roll Steak about 1 inch thick
- salt
- ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Garlic Butter
- 1/2 tablespoon salted butter
- 1 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
Instructions
- Pat the steak dry with paper towels, then season both sides with salt and ground black pepper. Set aside.
- Prepare the garlic butter by combining salted butter, minced garlic, and chopped parsley in a bowl. Mix well and refrigerate before using.
- Heat a cast-iron skillet on high heat until smoking hot, then add oil. Transfer the seasoned steak to the skillet and pan-sear one side (do not turn) for 2 minutes. Before flipping to the other side, sear the fatty edge of the steak until it is browned and aromatic.
- Then, turn the steak over and pan-sear the other side for 2 minutes. (Cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes on each side, depending on the thickness of the steak.) Transfer the steak to a serving plate.
- Add a dollop of garlic butter on top of the steak and spread it out. Serve immediately.

Notes
- Heat a cast-iron skillet until smoking before pan-searing to create the perfect color and seal all the flavors in the steak.
- Timing is everything. Cooking Wagyu usually takes less time compared to other kinds of steaks. Depending on the thickness of the steak, you will need to cook for 2 to 3 minutes or less on each for medium-rare to have a rich and juicy steak.
