This recipe for pan-seared steak makes steaks that are tender, juicy, and have a tasty crust. Adding garlic, butter, and fresh herbs to the meat gives it more flavor, making it perfect for a special dinner or just because you want a tasty steak.

Ingredients: 2 beef steaks about 1 inch thick. 2 tablespoons olive oil. Salt and pepper to taste. 2 cloves garlic, minced. 2 tablespoons butter. 1 sprig fresh rosemary optional. 1 sprig fresh thyme optional.

Instructions: Remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. Pat the steaks dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. Season both sides of the steaks generously with salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the steaks to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust cooking time according to your preference. During the last minute of cooking, add the minced garlic, butter, rosemary, and thyme to the skillet. Tilt the skillet slightly and spoon the melted butter over the steaks continuously for added flavor. Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. Slice the steaks against the grain and serve hot.

👩‍🍳 Ingredients (Serves 2):

2 ribeye or New York strip steaks (about 1-inch thick, room temperature)

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

2 tablespoons vegetable oil (high smoke point)

3 tablespoons unsalted butter

3 garlic cloves, smashed

2 sprigs fresh thyme or rosemary (optional)

Optional sides: mashed potatoes, asparagus, or roasted veggies

🔥 Instructions:

Prep the Steak: Pat steaks dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt and pepper on both sides. Let them rest at room temp for 20–30 minutes for even cooking.

Sear It Right: Heat a heavy skillet (cast iron preferred) over high heat until smoking hot. Add oil and immediately place steaks in the pan. Sear without moving for 2–3 minutes per side for medium-rare (adjust for thickness and doneness).

Butter Baste: Reduce heat to medium-low. Add butter, garlic, and herbs to the pan. Tilt the pan and spoon the melted garlic butter over the steak repeatedly for 1–2 minutes.

Rest & Serve: Transfer steaks to a cutting board and let them rest for 5 minutes. Slice against the grain, drizzle with garlic butter from the pan, and garnish with herbs.
