Hanger Steak Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Take the hanger steak out of the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Season the Steak

    Rub the olive oil over both sides of the steak. Season generously with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder, ensuring that the seasoning is evenly distributed.

  3. 3

    Heat the Pan

    Heat a cast-iron skillet or heavy pan over medium-high heat. Make sure the pan is hot before adding the steak.

  4. 4

    Cook the Steak

    Place the seasoned hanger steak in the hot pan. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side until a nice crust forms. Flip the steak and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, or longer depending on your desired doneness.

  5. 5

    Add Butter and Herbs

    During the last minute of cooking, add the butter and fresh rosemary to the pan. Baste the steak with the melted butter and herbs for added flavor.

  6. 6

    Rest the Steak

    Once cooked to your liking, remove the steak from the pan and let it rest on a cutting board for about 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.

  7. 7

    Slice and Serve

    Slice the hanger steak against the grain into thin strips and serve immediately.
