1
Prepare the Steak
Remove the hanger steak from the refrigerator and let it rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This helps in even cooking.
2
Season the Steak
Pat the steak dry with paper towels. Rub both sides with olive oil, then season generously with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Sprinkle fresh rosemary over the steak.

3
Heat the Pan
Preheat a cast-iron skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat until it is hot. You can test this by flicking a drop of water into the pan; it should sizzle.
4
Cook the Steak
Once the pan is hot, place the hanger steak in the pan. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side, without moving it, to develop a good sear.
5
Flip the Steak
After 3-4 minutes, flip the steak using tongs and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes on the other side for medium-rare. Adjust the time as needed for desired doneness.
6
Add Butter
In the last minute of cooking, add the butter to the pan. Use a spoon to baste the melted butter over the steak for added flavor.
7
Rest the Steak
Remove the steak from the pan and transfer it to a cutting board. Let it rest for about 5 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.

8
Slice and Serve
Slice the hanger steak against the grain into thin strips. Serve with lemon wedges and a sprinkle of chopped parsley for garnish, if desired.
