This recipe can be easily made for one, two, or a large dinner party. Depending on how many steaks you want to make, the rest of the ingredients can easily be adjusted! This recipe is not only easy-to-follow but also a quick way to make a savory dinner in no time!
Ingredients To Gather:
- Steak
- Peanut oil
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1-2 cloves garlic
- Thyme
Instructions To Follow:
- 4-5 minutes before you are ready to cook, pre-heat a cast iron pan over medium heat.
- About a minute before you’re ready to cook, turn your pan up to medium-high heat. Coat your steaks in oil and season liberally with salt and pepper.
- Put your steaks in your hot pan and don’t touch them for at least 3-5 minutes. Flip them once and let them cook another 3-5 minutes.
- When your steaks are nearly done, turn the temperature to medium-low and drop in the butter, thyme, and garlic. Tilt the pan and scoop the melted butter over the steaks to baste. Let the steaks cook in the butter until they reach the temperature you like.
- When the steak is cooked to your liking, remove it to a fresh plate to rest for at least 5 minutes, pretty-side up to preserve the caramelization. Use the last five minutes of rest time to set your table or finish up making a side dish.
Finished!
