Beef loin flat iron steak Recipe
A delicious and juicy beef loin flat iron steak, perfect for a tender and flavorful meal. This cut of beef is tender, easy to cook, and more affordable than premium cuts like ribeye, making it an excellent choice for a weeknight dinner or special occasion.
Ingredients
- 2 Beef Loin Flat Iron Steaks approximately 450-500 g
- 2 tbsp Olive Oil 30 g
- 1 tbsp Fresh Garlic 8 g
- 1 tsp Fresh Thyme 1 g
- Salt & Pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp Butter 14 g
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Steak
- Start by patting your steaks dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This ensures a crisp sear when cooking. Season the steaks generously with salt, pepper, and herbs like fresh thyme or rosemary.
Step 2: Sear the Steak
- Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steaks, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Sear for 4-5 minutes per side until a golden-brown crust forms. For medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 130°F (54°C).
Step 3: Add Butter and Aromatics
- After flipping, add butter, garlic, and herbs to the pan. Tilt the pan slightly to pool the melted butter and spoon it over the steaks.
Step 4: Rest the Steak
- Let the steaks rest for 5-10 minutes after cooking to allow the juices to redistribute, ensuring a tender and juicy steak.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
- Slice the steak against the grain and serve with your favorite sides for a delicious meal.
