Instructions

Combine the softened butter with the minced garlic, chopped parsley, lemon zest and kosher salt in a medium bowl.
Use a hand mixer or a rubber spatula to stir to combine.
Roll into a log or transfer to a storage container to keep the butter in the refrigerator.
This can be kept for 2-3 week in the fridge. You may also leave at room temperature if you’re cooking a steak or another protein shortly after mixing it.

Notes

Double or triple the recipe. Since this keeps well in the refrigerator, you can make a large batch and store it. You can also freeze it, if you wrap it tightly, for a few months.
Use quality ingredients and the best butter you can get your hands on for extra flavor!
Don’t just use it for steak. This compound butter recipe is perfect with poultry (like chicken and turkey), as well as a base for garlic bread.
