Cooking Instructions
- 1
Preparation
Remove the Omi Wagyu beef from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This allows for even cooking.
- 2
Seasoning
Generously season both sides of the steak with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- 3
Searing the Steak
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned Omi Wagyu steak to the skillet. Sear for 2-3 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until your desired doneness is achieved.
- 4
Basting the Steak
In the last minute of cooking, add the butter, garlic cloves, and fresh thyme to the skillet. Use a spoon to baste the melted butter over the steak for added flavor.
- 5
Resting
Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest on a cutting board for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
- 6
Serving
Slice the steak against the grain and serve it immediately, optionally garnished with additional thyme.
