Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Steak (ribeye, sirloin, or New York strip)
- 3 tablespoons Montreal steak seasoning
- 1 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Butter (unsalted)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped, optional for garnish)
Instructions
Take the steaks out of the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature for about 20-30 minutes before cooking. Pat them dry with paper towels.
In a small bowl, mix together the Montreal steak seasoning, cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper.
Drizzle both sides of each steak with olive oil and rub the spice mixture evenly over all sides of the steaks. Press gently to help the spices adhere.
Heat a large cast-iron skillet or grill pan over high heat until it is very hot. You can also prepare an outdoor grill for high direct heat.
Add the steaks to the hot skillet or grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust the cook time based on your preference for doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check internal temperature: 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare, 140°F (60°C) for medium, and 155°F (68°C) for medium-well.
During the last minute of cooking, add the butter to the skillet or grill pan (if using), spooning the melted butter over the steaks to enhance flavor.
Remove the steaks from heat and transfer them to a cutting board. Let the steaks rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Slice the steaks against the grain and serve immediately. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired. Serve with your favorite sides like roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes.
