Herbed Lemon Steak

Ingredients

  • 4 Prime or Choice New York Strip Steaks
  • Olive oil
  • 10-20 sprigs of fresh rosemary
  • 10-20 sprigs of fresh marjoram
  • 10 cloves of freh garlic
  • 2-3 tbls of crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 cup kosher salt
  • 1/4 cup ground pepper
  • 1 stick of butter
  • 1/2 bunch of fresh chives finely snipped
  • Zest of one lemon
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper

Steps

1

In a blender, combine the leaves of the rosemary and marjoram (throw away the stems), the peeled garlic cloves, red pepper, S&P and enough olive oil to cover the dry seasonings. pulse a few times in the blender so everything is chopped finely and covered in oil. Place the steaks in a shallow pan and pour and rub all over the marinade onto all sides of the steaks. Put pan in the refrigerator to marinate overnight.

2

In a small bowl, bring butter to a soft room temperature, but not melted. Add snipped chives, lemon zest, salt and pepper to the butter and mash together with a fork or spoon. Once butter is combined, Lay a piece of plastic wrap on the counter and spoon the butter onto it. Roll the wrap around the butter to make a log. Twist the ends and place the log in the fridge.

3

The next day when ready to grill or cook the steaks, bring steaks to room temperature by placing the pan as is on the counter, with no cover, for 1 hour. Take the butter out of the refrigerator also and cut into 8 slices.

4

Bring your grill or Cast iron pan to medium high heat. Lifting one steak at a time, brush off the majority of the marinade from the steaks. Place on grill or pan and sear for 4-6 minutes. Check for a nice sear and turn over and let that side also sear for 4-6 minutes. If both sides are seared to a bit of blackening, remove from heat, place in a new pan and cover with foil. Let rest for 20 minutes.

5

Place the steaks back on the heat for 1 minute per side then place back on pan, top with the butter ( 2 slices per steak), cover again with foil and let rest until butter has melted. (About 5 minutes or so)
