Ingredients
- 1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 2 (1-pound) New York strip, ribeye, or top sirloin steaks, pounded to 1 1/4-inch-thick
- 1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled and quartered
- 1 sprig fresh rosemary
Directions
Step 1 –Heat a cast-iron pan over medium-high heat until hot.

Step 3 –While the pan is heating, pat the steaks dry with a paper towel.
Step 4 –Generously season the steaks with the salt and the pepper.
Step 5 –Add the steaks to the hot skillet and sear on one side until a brown crust forms, about 4 minutes.
Step 6 –Flip the steaks and cook, for about 3-4 minutes.
Step 7 –Use tongs to turn the steaks on their sides and cook until the white fat is rendered and the edges are seared, about 1 minute per edge.
Step 8 –Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter, the garlic cloves, and the rosemary.
Step 9 –Cook the butter mixture until the butter melts.
Step 10 –Spoon the butter sauce over the steaks until they are about 5-10 degrees from your desired doneness (140 degrees F for medium-rare, 155 degrees F for medium), about 1 minute.
Step 11 –Transfer the steaks to a cutting board, loosely cover them, and let them rest for 10 minutes.
Step 12 –Slice the steaks into 1/2-inch strips.
Step 13 –Serve the steaks with the remaining butter sauce.
