Steak

Garlic Butter

Method

Steak Preparation

  1. 1

    Season the Steak

    Pat the ribeye steaks dry with paper towels and season both sides generously with salt and black pepper. Let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Sear the Steak

    In a large cast-iron skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steaks and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Add garlic cloves and rosemary to the pan for flavor.

  3. 3

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a plate covered with foil for about 10 minutes before slicing.

Lobster Tail Preparation

  1. 4

    Prepare the Lobster

    Using kitchen shears, cut the top shell of the lobster tails lengthwise. Gently pull the meat out and lay it on top of the shell.

  2. 5

    Season the Lobster

    In a small bowl, mix melted butter, lemon juice, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Brush this mixture generously over the lobster meat.

  3. 6

    Broil the Lobster

    Preheat your broiler. Place the lobster tails on a baking sheet and broil for about 8-10 minutes, or until the meat is opaque and cooked through.

Garlic Butter Preparation

  1. 7

    Make the Garlic Butter

    In a small saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons of butter over low heat. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in chopped parsley.

Serving

  1. 8

    Plate the Dish

    Slice the rested steaks and arrange them on plates alongside the lobster tails. Drizzle the garlic butter over both the steak and lobster meat.

  2. 9

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish with additional parsley if desired and serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
