Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Remove the steaks from the fridge at least 30 minutes before cooking to bring them to room temperature. Then pat dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture and season with salt and pepper on both sides.
  2. Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil to the hot skillet and once the oil is shimmering, add the steaks on top.
  3. Sear the steaks undisturbed on one side for 4 minutes or until a golden-brown crust forms. Use tongs to turn the steaks on their sides and cook for 1 minute per side. Flip the steaks to their other side and cook for 3-4 more minutes.
  4. Reduce the heat to medium-low, add the butter and rosemary. Once the butter melts, tilt the skillet and spoon the butter over the steaks repeatedly until the steaks reach your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. I recommend 125°F for medium-rare, keeping in mind that the temperature will continue to rise about 5-10 degrees after you remove from heat and the steaks rest.
  5. Transfer the steaks to a plate or cutting board, tent them with aluminum foil, and allow them to rest for 5 minutes before slicing or serving.

Notes

  • Storage: NY strip tastes best right after it has been cooked, but it is possible to store and reheat leftovers. Keep leftovers in a small airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days. to reheat, place the steak in a casserole dish, cover with foil, and warm in a 250°F oven until the internal temperature reaches at least 110°F.
