Ingredients
- 4 steaks (New York Strip, Ribeye, Top Sirloin, or your favorite cut)
- salt (to taste)
- pepper (to taste)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Garlic Herb Butter
- 1 stick butter (softened)
- 1 tablespoon garlic (minced)
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh herbs (parsley, thyme, dill or chives, plus more for garnish)
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch pepper
Instructions
- Heat a large cast-iron skillet or heavy-duty pan over medium-high heat for at least 2-3 minutes or until smoking.
- Pat each steak dry with a paper towel. Generously season both sides with salt and pepper.
- Add the olive oil to the pan followed by the steak. Sear steak for 3-4 minutes on each side. Resist the urge to flip until the first side is browned. (For medium, cook 4 to 5 minutes on each side; for well-done, cook 5 to 6 minutes on each side).
- Remove steak from heat and rest for at least 5 minutes. Top with a scoop of the garlic butter and serve.
