Rosemary and Garlic Basted Sirloin Steak

(from castro15’s recipe box)

Categories: Steak

Ingredients

  • 1 lb. boneless top sirloin steak, trimmed
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 3/4 tsp kosher salt, divided
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper, divided
  • 4 medium garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 medium shallots, sliced lengthwise
  • 1 1/2 tbsp butter
  • 1 sprig fresh rosemary, plus more for garnish

Directions

  1. Let steak stand at room temp for 30 minutes. Pat dry with paper towels. Brush with oil and sprinkle with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper.

  2. Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add steak and cook for 1 minute. Add garlic, shallots, butter and rosemary; cook, tilting the pan slightly to pool the butter and drippings on one side, for 1 minute. Use a spoon to baste the steak with the butter mixture. Flip the steak and cook, basting occasionally, until cooked to medium-rare, 2 minutes more. Transfer the steak to a clean cutting board and top with the shallots, garlic and rosemary. Cover loosely with foil; let stand for 10 minutes.

  3. Discard the rosemary sprig. Thinly slice the steak against the grain and transfer to a serving platter. Spoon drippings from the pan and cutting board over the steak. Season with the remaining 1/4 tsp each salt and pepper and garnish with more rosemary.
