Steak

Method

Preparing the Steak

  1. 1

    Season the Steak

    Pat the strip steaks dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper, rubbing it into the meat.

  2. 2

    Heat the Pan

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.

  3. 3

    Sear the Steak

    Add the seasoned strip steaks to the hot skillet. Sear for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until a nice crust forms.

  4. 4

    Add Aromatics

    During the last minute of cooking, add the garlic cloves (smashed) and rosemary sprigs to the pan, basting the steaks with the oil and aromatics.

  5. 5

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest for about 5 minutes before slicing.

Preparing the Asparagus

  1. 6

    Prep the Asparagus

    Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and rinse them under cold water.

  2. 7

    Season the Asparagus

    In a bowl, toss the asparagus with olive oil, lemon juice, and salt until evenly coated.

  3. 8

    Cook the Asparagus

    Heat a separate skillet over medium heat. Add the seasoned asparagus and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until tender-crisp and bright green.
