How to cook best steak dish !!
Today’s recipe is more of a technique than a recipe – but it’s one that all steak lovers should know because it’s easy, worthy of using on high quality steaks and also a way to really elevate economical steaks.
It’s as simple as this: while the steak is searing in the pan, throw in butter, garlic and thyme and baste continuously as the steak finishes cooking. The garlic-thyme infused butter does all sorts of wonderful things to the steak, seeping into the cracks and crevices, and adhering to the crust of the steak.

INGREDIENTS
2 lbs New York Strip Steaks (2 steaks) or Ribeye or Top Sirloin Steaks (1 lb each steak, 1 1/4” thick)
1/2 Tbsp vegetable oil or any high heat cooking oil like canola or extra light olive oil
1 1/2 tsp sea salt
1 tsp black pepper freshly ground
2 Tbsp unsalted butter
2 cloves garlic peeled and quartered
1 sprig of fresh rosemary
DIRECTIONS
Remove your steaks from the fridge and allow them to come to room temp before cooking (30 min for thin steaks about an hour for thick steaks)
Use a good heavy pan… preferably a Cast Iron skillet or ST grill
Oil your pan well AFTER it is heated! (med-high heat)
Season your steak liberally on both sides. McCormick, Weber, Steakhouse are all good brands and you can probably find them in your local grocery stores.
Once you place your steak in the pan DO NOT touch/turn them for at least 3-4 minutes until a nice sear is formed. When you flip the steaks over allow them to cook 3-4 minutes on the other side.
If your steaks are thick you should finish them in a hot oven preheated to 375° anywhere from 5 to 10 minutes for a med to med good steak.
