Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces beef steaks (sirloin, ribeye, or strip)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 sprigs fresh rosemary sprigs
- 2 sprigs fresh thyme sprigs
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Pat each steak dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture and allow for a good sear.
Season both sides of the steaks generously with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
In a large, oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the steaks in the skillet and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until a golden-brown crust forms. Do not overcrowd the skillet; sear in batches if necessary.
After searing, lower the heat slightly and add the butter, minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme to the skillet.
Tilt the skillet slightly to pool the melted butter, and use a spoon to baste the steaks with the buttery garlic-herb mixture for 1 minute.
Transfer the skillet with the steaks to the preheated oven.
Bake for 5-7 minutes for medium-rare doneness or longer depending on your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature (125°F for medium-rare, 135°F for medium, and 145°F for medium-well).
Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and transfer the steaks to a plate. Tent them loosely with aluminum foil and let them rest for 5-10 minutes to retain their juices.
Serve the baked steaks warm, drizzled with the remaining garlic-herb butter from the skillet, alongside your choice of sides such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad.
