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.
