Simple Steak Recipe
Ingredients
4 quality beef steaks (such as ribeye or sirloin)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tbsp olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
Fresh herbs (rosemary, thyme, or parsley)
Instructions
Preparation: Begin by taking your steaks out of the fridge at least 30 minutes before cooking. This is crucial for ensuring your steaks cook evenly.
Seasoning: Season both sides of the steaks generously with salt and pepper. Don't be shy with the seasoning – it's key to a flavorful crust.
Preheat Your Pan: Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add olive oil once the pan is hot.
Cooking the Steak: Place the steaks in the pan, being careful not to overcrowd them. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer depending on your preferred doneness. Halfway through, add the minced garlic and herbs to the pan for an aromatic infusion.
Resting: Once cooked to your liking, remove the steaks from the pan and let them rest for about 5 minutes. This step is essential for juicy, tender steak.
Serving: Slice the steak against the grain and serve. You can add a dollop of herb butter or a side of roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
There you have it – a simple yet exquisite steak recipe that's perfect for your family's New Year's dinner. This dish not only promises a delightful culinary experience but also brings the warmth and joy of a home-cooked meal to your celebratory table. Here's to a delicious start to the New Year!
