Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 1/4 pounds sirloin steak (I like top sirloin)
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 tablespoons butter (softened)
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic (minced)
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh herbs (such as thyme, parsley or chives, plus more for garnish)

Instruction

  • Pat each steak dry with a paper towel. Heat a large cast iron skillet or other heavy pan over medium high heat.
  • Pour the olive oil into the pan. Season the steaks on both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Place the steaks in a single layer in the pan. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side or until browned. Use a thermometer to cook the steak to your desired level of doneness. I recommend cooking to medium which is 145 degrees F.
  • While the steak is cooking, place the butter in a bowl along with the garlic, herbs, salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
  • Let the steaks rest for at least 5 minutes off the heat. Place a dollop of butter on top of each steak. Slice the steak. Garnish with additional fresh herbs if desired, then serve.
