Ingredients

  • 2 ribeye or sirloin steaks (1-inch thick)
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Herb Butter: In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, chopped herbs, and lemon juice. Mix well and set aside.
  2. Season the Steaks: Generously season the steaks with salt and black pepper on both sides.
  3. Sear the Steaks: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steaks to the pan. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side until a nice crust forms.
  4. Flip and Cook: Turn the steaks over and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, or longer to reach your preferred doneness.
  5. Add Herb Butter: During the last minute of cooking, place a dollop of herb butter on top of each steak. Allow it to melt and baste the steaks as they finish cooking.
  6. Rest and Serve: Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes. Serve with additional herb butter on top.
