My brother is a meat and potatoes type of guy, so even though the rest of my family doesn’t eat much red meat, I sometimes surprise him with a steak. This recipe yields an incredibly juicy piece of meat. The thing is…it’s so simple to make, All the recipe involves is sear 2 minutes, flip, sear 2 minutes, bake 8 minutes, allow to rest. That’s it!
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
2 sirloin steaks (≈0.62 lb each)
4 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoon parsley
2 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
2 garlic clove (minced)
Pinch red pepper flakes
Salt and pepper to taste
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
Sprinkle salt and pepper on the steaks.
Melt the butter and 2 teaspoons of oil with the garlic and red pepper flakes. Cook over medium-low heat for 3 minutes, or until fragrant. Turn off heat, add parsley.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, warm 1 tablespoon of the oil. When the oil is hot, add the steaks. Sear the steaks for 2-3 minutes then flip. Sear for another 2-3 minutes. Drizzle half of the garlic butter sauce over the steaks, turn off heat, and cover the skillet with tin foil.
Put the covered skillet into the oven. Bake for 5-8 minutes, or until your desired doneness (the timing I just explained will yield a medium-well steak).
Remove the steak from skillet, drizzle the remaining garlic butter sauce over the steaks, and allow to rest on a plate for 5-10 minutes (covered in foil).
Serve and enjoy!
