Pawpaws Steak Grilling Baste And Marinade Recipes

HOW TO COOK STEAK - LIKE A CHEF!

Steps:

• Bring to room temp: Take the steak out of the fridge 30 minutes prior to bring to room temperature.
• Dry steaks: Pat dry with paper towels.
• Heat skillet: Heat oil in a heavy based skillet over high heat until it is very hot - you should see smoke!
• Season: Sprinkle each side of the steak generously with salt and pepper, then immediately place in the skillet.
• Sear Side 1: Cook for 2 - 2.5 minutes until you get a great crust, then turn.
• Garlic Butter: Leave for 1 minute, then push steaks to one side and toss in butter, garlic and thyme. BE CAREFUL - the thyme will sputter!
• Baste: As soon as the butter is melted, continuously spoon the butter over the steak until it's cooked to your liking - 2 minutes in total for the 2nd side for medium rare (52C/125F, chart below for other doneness temps)
• Basting also renders fat on the side of the steak - use tongs to sear the edges at the end if you want it browned more.
• Rest: Transfer steak to a plate and cover loosely with foil, rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
• Serve steak with a bit of the butter from the skillet drizzled on top. Pictured in post with Crispy Smashed Potatoes.
