Instructions
- Step 1: Pat steaks dry with paper towels and season both sides with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
- Step 2: Add steaks to the skillet and cook for 4 minutes per side for medium-rare, turning once, until internal temperature reaches 125°F (52°C). Transfer to a plate and tent loosely with foil.
- Step 3: Reduce heat to medium, add 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, 4 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary to the skillet. Cook, swirling constantly, for 1 minute until butter melts and garlic is fragrant but not browned.
- Step 4: Pour the garlic-rosemary butter over the rested steaks and serve immediately.
