Ingredients
2 bone-in strip steaks, each weighing 1 lb and cut 1-1/2 inches thick
Any preferred steak cut, if substituting for variety
3/4 tablespoon rock salt
1–1/2 teaspoons whole black peppercorns
1/2 teaspoon minced dried garlic
1/2 teaspoon minced dried onion
1/4 teaspoon fennel seeds
1/8 teaspoon red chili pepper flakes
1 stick (1/2 cup) of salted butter, softened to room temperature
1 tablespoon finely minced fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon finely minced fresh thyme
2 tablespoons chopped parsley
1 garlic clove, pressed or minced
A generous pinch of the homemade steak seasoning
Instructions
1-Getting started: Getting started with this grilled steak is all about building confidence in the kitchen. First, let the steaks sit out to reach room temperature, which helps them cook evenly and keeps the inside juicy. Once ready, pat them dry and rub on the homemade steak seasoning made from rock salt, whole black peppercorns, minced dried garlic, minced dried onion, fennel seeds, and red chili pepper flakes.
2-Grilling: Next, fire up your grill to a high heat of around 450Β°F for that perfect sear. Brush the steaks with a bit of oil if needed, then place them on the grill for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, adjusting based on thickness. Donβt forget to incorporate the herb butter at the end mix softened salted butter with finely minced fresh rosemary, thyme, chopped parsley, minced garlic, and a pinch of your seasoning, then let it melt over the hot steak for extra flavor.
3-Dietary and finishing touches: For dietary tweaks, try marinating with herbs alone if youβre going low-calorie. After grilling, let the steaks rest for a few minutes to lock in those juices. This method not only simplifies the process but also makes the meal feel special for everyone, from newlyweds to seniors enjoying a quiet night in.
