T-bone steak with garlic butter Recipe

American · Main course · 22 min total

A perfectly seared T-bone steak topped with rich, herbed garlic butter for a restaurant-quality meal at home.

Ingredients

• 2 T-bone steaks (about 1 inch thick, 16 oz each)
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
• 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest

Instructions

1. Remove steaks from refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking to bring to room temperature. Pat dry with paper towels.
2. In a small bowl, combine softened butter, minced garlic, parsley, thyme, and lemon zest. Mix well and set aside.
3. Season steaks generously on both sides with salt and pepper.
4. Heat a heavy skillet (cast iron preferred) over high heat until smoking. Add vegetable oil.
5. Carefully place steaks in skillet. Sear for 4 minutes without moving, then flip and sear for another 4 minutes for medium-rare (adjust time for desired doneness).
6. Reduce heat to low. Add garlic butter to the skillet and let it melt. Spoon butter over steaks for 1 minute.
7. Transfer steaks to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes. Serve with remaining garlic butter spooned on top.

Tips

• Use a meat thermometer: 130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium.
• Let steak rest before slicing to retain juices.
• Store leftover garlic butter in the fridge for up to a week.
