Ingredients

  • 2 New York Strip Steaks bone in, (10 oz each)
  • 2 teaspoons sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 Tablespoons vegetable oil (we like avocado oil)
  • 2 Tablespoons salted butter cut into 2 slices
  • 1 sprig fresh rosemary
  • 2 sprigs fresh thyme
  • 3 garlic cloves

Instructions

  • Pat the steak dry and season both sides with salt and pepper. Let it sit at room temperature for 15-20 minutes
  • Heat the oil in a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Sear. Add the steak to the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes.
  • Flip the steak and let it cook for 2 more minutes
  • Add the butter, rosemary, thyme, and garlic to the pan. Be sure to spread them evenly throughout the pan. As the butter melts, tilt the pan and spoon it over the steaks (this is called basting). Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, basting every 20 seconds or so.
  • Remove the steaks from the pan and place them on a cutting board. Let them rest for 5 minutes.
  • Slice the steak against the grain and serve warm.

Notes

This recipe has been made with bone-in New York strip steak, but that does not mean you need to limit this perfect steak dinner recipe just to that cut of steak. Here are more options to try - filet mignon, t-bone steaks, flank steaks, and sirloin steaks.
