Ingredients

  

1x2x3x

• 2 lb New York strip steaks or ribeye steaks about 1 lb each
• 1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 1/2 tsp sea salt
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 cloves garlic peeled and quartered
• 1 sprig fresh rosemary

Instructions

 

• Pat the steaks completely dry with paper towels.
• Just before cooking, season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
• Heat a cast-iron pan until hot. Add the oil over medium-high heat and swirl to coat.
• When the oil is very hot, add the steaks to the skillet.
• Sear the first side for 4 minutes, until a brown crust forms.
• Flip and cook the second side for another 3–4 minutes.
• Using tongs, turn each steak onto its sides to render the fat and sear the edges, about 1 minute per edge.
• Reduce the heat to medium and immediately add the butter, garlic, and rosemary.
• Tilt the pan and continuously spoon the melted garlic butter over the steaks for about 1 minute.
• Continue basting until the steaks are just below the desired doneness.
• Transfer the steaks to a cutting board and loosely cover.
• Rest for 10 minutes, then slice into strips against the grain.
• Spoon any extra butter sauce over the sliced steak before serving.
