Steak

Garlic Herb Butter

Method

Preparing the Steak

  1. 1

    Season the Steak

    Take the New York strip steaks out of the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. Pat them dry with paper towels, then season both sides generously with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.

  2. 2

    Heat the Pan

    In a large cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering, about 2-3 minutes.

  3. 3

    Sear the Steak

    Carefully place the seasoned steaks in the hot skillet. Sear for about 4-5 minutes on one side without moving them. Flip the steaks and cook for another 3-4 minutes for medium-rare or longer if desired.

Making the Garlic Herb Butter

  1. 4

    Prepare the Herb Butter

    While the steaks are cooking, in a small bowl, mix the softened unsalted butter with minced garlic, chopped fresh parsley, and thyme leaves until well combined.

  2. 5

    Add to the Steak

    Once the steaks are cooked to your liking, remove them from the skillet and place them on a plate. Top each steak with a generous dollop of the garlic herb butter and let it melt over the steak.

Serving the Steak

  1. 6

    Rest and Serve

    Allow the steaks to rest for about 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with your choice of side dishes and enjoy your perfectly cooked New York steak.
