Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces (6-8 ounces each) Steak (ribeye, sirloin, or your choice of cut)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 cloves, minced Garlic cloves
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 sprigs Fresh rosemary
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 sprigs Fresh thyme
- 4 large sheets Aluminum foil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Take 4 large sheets of aluminum foil and lay them flat on your work surface. Each steak will require 2 layers of foil to prevent leakage.
Pat the steaks dry with a paper towel and season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.
Place each steak in the center of a double-layer foil sheet.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over each steak.
Divide the minced garlic equally between the two steaks, spreading it over the top.
Add 2 tablespoons of butter on top of each steak.
Place 1 sprig of rosemary and 1 sprig of thyme on top of each steak for added flavor.
Fold the foil edges up and over the steak, sealing the foil packet tightly to prevent any juices from escaping.
Place the foil packets on a baking sheet and transfer to the preheated oven.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, depending on your preferred level of doneness (15 minutes for medium-rare, 20 minutes for medium).
Carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the foil packets rest for 5 minutes before opening.
Carefully open the foil packets to release steam, plate the steaks, and spoon any remaining juices from the foil over the top before serving.
Serve the steaks with your favorite side dishes and enjoy!
