Instructions
1. Bring the Steak to Room Temperature
- Pat steaks dry with paper towels.
- Season generously with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Let them rest 15–20 minutes.
2. Mix the Garlic Butter
Combine in a small bowl:
- Butter
- Garlic
- Parsley
- Paprika
- Lemon juice (optional)
Set aside.
3. Sear the Steaks
- Heat a heavy skillet (cast iron is best) over high heat.
- Add olive oil.
- When the pan is very hot, add the steaks.
- Sear 3–4 minutes per side for medium-rare.
- Adjust time depending on thickness.
4. Butter Baste (The Best Part!)
Once you flip the steaks:
- Add the garlic butter to the pan.
- Tilt the pan slightly.
- Spoon the melted butter over the steaks repeatedly for 1–2 minutes.
This gives the meat a rich, glossy, buttery finish.
5. Rest the Meat
Let the steaks rest 5 minutes before slicing so the juices stay inside.
