Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound flank steak
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Instructions
Remove the flank steak from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking to allow it to come to room temperature.
Pat the steak dry with paper towels and rub it with olive oil on both sides.
Season both sides of the steak generously with kosher salt and black pepper.
Heat a large cast-iron skillet or grill pan over high heat until smoking.
Place the steak in the hot pan and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or cook to your desired level of doneness.
While the steak is cooking, prepare the garlic butter by melting the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic to the melted butter and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant but not browned.
Remove the butter from heat and stir in chopped fresh parsley and lemon juice. Set aside.
Once the steak is cooked, transfer it to a cutting board and let it rest for 5-10 minutes to retain its juices.
Slice the steak thinly against the grain and arrange it on a serving platter.
Drizzle the garlic butter over the sliced steak and garnish with additional parsley if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
