Sous Vide Steak Recipe
Description
Sous vide cooking allows the New York Strip steaks to cook evenly to the desired doneness by slowly heating them in vacuum-sealed bags with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, fresh thyme, and some butter. This technique gently infuses the meat with the herb and butter flavors while retaining moisture and tenderness. After at least an hour in the water bath, the steaks are removed and seared in a hot pan with avocado oil to form a crisp exterior. Additional butter is added for basting, enriching the flavor and texture of the crust. The final result combines a juicy, consistent interior with a golden-brown crust, ideal for serving immediately or storing for quick reheating later.
These steaks pair well with classic sides or simple vegetables, benefiting from the infusion of thyme and butter carried through the cooking and searing steps. Using the sous vide approach reduces the risk of overcooking and ensures a steak cooked to preference throughout.
