Today I’m sharing one of our favorite recipes for Rosemary Garlic Butter Steak.
We are using a 3 inch thick Sirloin Steak and searing it over medium-high heat.
This steak can be served rare, medium rare or medium well done.
You can also use fillet, ribeye or t-bone if you like in replace of sirloin.
Just take note of the different cooking times as I will explain more below.
This recipe works very well served alongside some sauteed mushrooms and mini potatoes. However if your on a keto diet of some kind asparagus can be replaced for the potatoes.
HOW TO COOK SIRLOIN STEAK MEDIUM RARE
Sirloin steak is best served medium rare, in order to cook it that way you will want to sear it for 6 minutes on one side then flip it over once and sear it for another 5 minutes on the other.
HOW TO COOK STEAK
If you prefer your steak medium cooked, then you will want to sear it for 7 minutes on one side and 4-5 on the other. Always let your steak sit off the heat for 5 minutes to rest before serving!
Sirloin steak is allot like fillet and is considered a prime steak and is most people’s favorite cut.
While mine is a t-bone which takes a bit longer to cook.
Want to try my “Rosemary Garlic Roasted Mini Potatoes”? you will find that recipe below too. If you were to order something like this in the restaurant you are looking at minimum $50 a person.
However preparing this at home is simple and can save you a lot of money.
I just love the way the rosemary and garlic butter flavors the steak, it melts in your mouth and to be honest I have yet to try something this good in the restaurants.
So if your thinking of preparing this for a loved for some kind of special occasion then you can’t go wrong with this recipe.
The trick to cooking the best steak is to use ample butter, you are going to be basting the steak in the butter while it cooks. Giving it depth of flavor and also helping to make it moist and juicy.
The second trick is to season the steak generously on both sides prior to cooking with salt and pepper. If you follow those two tips alone you are sure to prepare the best steak ever.
Steak cooking times vary based on the cut: Always cook your steak over medium-high heat, searing it on each side only once. Turning the steak often sometimes leads to a overcooked and tough steak.
HOW SIRLOIN STEAK
- Sirloin Steak: Cook for 6 minutes on one side and 4-5 on the other for a medium rare steak. Up the cooking time by one minute to have a medium steak.
- Ribeye: Cook for 5 minutes on one side and 3 on the other for a medium rare steak
- Fillet: Cook for 4 minutes on one side and 3 on the other for a medium rare steak
- T-Bone: Cook for 8 minutes on one side and 4-5 on the other for a medium rare steak
I will never understand why it’s so darn expensive to order steak at a restaurant when you can make one just as good at home for a fraction of the cost.
Just be sure to source a organic cut of beef those tend to taste the best.
