Steak poêlé au beurre à l’ail

Ingrédients

• 4 steaks ((New York Strip, Ribeye, Top Sirloin, or your favorite cut))
• salt ((to taste))
• pepper ((to taste))
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 stick butter ((softened))
• 1 tablespoon garlic ((minced))
• 2 tablespoons minced fresh herbs ((parsley, thyme, dill or chives, plus more for garnish))

Préparation

1. 1

   Heat a large cast-iron skillet or heavy-duty pan over medium-high heat for at least 2-3 minutes or until smoking.

2. 2

   Pat each steak dry with a paper towel. Generously season both sides with salt and pepper.

3. 3

   Add the olive oil to the pan followed by the steak. Sear steak for 3-4 minutes on each side. Resist the urge to flip until the first side is browned. (For medium, cook 4 to 5 minutes on each side; for well-done, cook 5 to 6 minutes on each side).

4. 4

   Remove steak from heat and rest for at least 5 minutes. Top with a scoop of the garlic butter and serve.
