Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 lbs flank steak (or sirloin)
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
- Optional: lime wedges for serving
Instructions
- Prepare the Steak: Pat the steak dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
- Heat the Skillet: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter.
- Sear the Steak: Add the steak to the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired doneness. For medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 135°F (57°C).
- Make Garlic Butter: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to low and add the remaining butter and minced garlic. Cook for about 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the garlic is fragrant but not browned.
- Baste the Steak: Remove the steak from the heat and pour the garlic butter over it, letting it rest for a few minutes.
- Serve: Slice the steak against the grain, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve with lime wedges if desired.
