The Perfect Steak with Garlic Herb Butter Recipe

This steak recipe features a tender, juicy cut of meat seared to perfection and topped with a rich garlic herb butter. Each bite is bursting with flavor, making it an irresistible dish for any occasion.
Ingredients
- 2 ribeye or sirloin steaks (about 1 inch thick)
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
Instructions
- Season the Steak: Pat the steaks dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
- Sear the Steaks: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil. Once hot, add the steaks and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting the time based on your preferred doneness.
- Make the Garlic Herb Butter: While the steaks are cooking, mix the softened butter with minced garlic, parsley, thyme, and rosemary in a small bowl until well combined.
- Add Butter to Steaks: Once the steaks are done cooking, remove them from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes. While resting, place generous dollops of the garlic herb butter on top of the steaks to melt.
- Serve: Slice the steaks and serve with any remaining garlic herb butter drizzled over the top.
