Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6-8 ounces each) sirloin steaks
- 0.5 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons (finely chopped) fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1 teaspoon (finely chopped) fresh rosemary leaves
- 2 cloves (minced) garlic
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon (or to taste) salt
- 1 teaspoon (freshly ground, or to taste) black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon lemon zest
Instructions
Remove the sirloin steaks from the refrigerator and allow them to come to room temperature for 20-30 minutes before grilling.
In a small bowl, combine the unsalted butter, parsley, thyme, rosemary, garlic, and lemon zest. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed. Transfer the herb butter onto a piece of parchment paper, shape it into a log, and refrigerate until firm, about 15 minutes.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (about 400-450°F). Clean and oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Pat the steaks dry with paper towels, then brush both sides lightly with olive oil. Season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Place the steaks on the preheated grill. Cook for 4-6 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust the cooking time based on your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check internal temperature: 130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium, and 150°F for medium-well.
Once the steaks are cooked to your preferred doneness, remove them from the grill and let them rest on a cutting board for 5-7 minutes to retain juices.
Slice the chilled herb butter into rounds and place one or two pieces on top of each steak while resting. The warmth of the steak will melt the butter, creating a luscious sauce.
Serve the grilled sirloin steaks with your choice of sides, such as roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes. Enjoy immediately!
