Print Recipe

A quick and easy steak recipe designed to rescue slightly overcooked or mishandled steaks, delivering juicy, tender, and flavorful results perfect for Father’s Day or any special occasion.

Ingredients

  • Beef steak (ribeye, sirloin, or strip steak), about 1 to 1.5 inches thick (preferably USDA Choice)
  • Kosher salt, coarse grind
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Garlic powder, 1 teaspoon
  • Olive oil, 2 tablespoons
  • Unsalted butter, 2 tablespoons
  • Fresh rosemary or thyme sprigs, 2-3 (optional)
  • Garlic cloves, 2, smashed (optional)
  • Lemon juice, a squeeze (optional)

Instructions

  1. Bring the steak to room temperature by removing it from the fridge about 30 minutes before cooking.
  2. Pat the steak dry with paper towels, then season generously with kosher salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.
  3. Preheat your grill or skillet to medium-high heat. If using a grill, lightly oil the grates with olive oil to prevent sticking.
  4. Place the steak on the grill or skillet and sear undisturbed for about 4-5 minutes for a 1-inch steak until a golden-brown crust forms.
  5. Flip the steak and sear the other side for another 4 minutes.
  6. In the last 2 minutes of cooking, add butter, smashed garlic, and herbs to the pan or a small container if grilling, and baste the steak repeatedly with the melted butter.
  7. Check doneness with an instant-read thermometer: 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare, 140°F (60°C) for medium.
  8. Remove the steak from heat and tent loosely with aluminum foil. Let it rest for 5-10 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.
  9. Slice the steak against the grain and serve with an optional squeeze of lemon juice.

Notes

For a dairy-free option, substitute butter with ghee or avocado oil. Use a meat thermometer to ensure perfect doneness. Resting the steak is crucial for juiciness. Avoid piercing the steak to retain juices. If flare-ups occur, move steak to a cooler spot quickly. Can finish cooking in a 400°F oven for 5-7 minutes if using a skillet.
