Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cuts (about 8 oz each) Ribeye or sirloin steak
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 8 pieces Fresh asparagus spears
- 4 slices Swiss cheese slices
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
Instructions
Remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
Wash and trim the asparagus spears, cutting off the tough ends.
Season both sides of the steaks generously with salt and black pepper.
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, place the steaks in the pan and cook for 3-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust the time based on your preferred doneness. Use a meat thermometer for accuracy (125°F for medium-rare, 135°F for medium).
Remove the steaks from the pan and place them on a plate. Cover loosely with foil and let rest for 5 minutes to lock in the juices.
While the steaks are resting, add the butter and minced garlic to the same pan and lower the heat to medium.
Add the asparagus spears to the pan and cook for 3-5 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are tender-crisp and slightly charred.
Preheat your broiler on high. Place the steaks on a broiler-safe pan or baking sheet.
Top each steak with 2 cooked asparagus spears and 2 slices of Swiss cheese.
Place the steaks under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, just until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the steaks from the broiler, transfer to plates, and serve immediately.
