Beef Steak and Fries

Step 1 of 4

Thoroughly pat the steak dry with paper towels. Just before cooking, generously season with salt & pepper.

Step 2 of 4

Heat the cast iron pan until hot then add some oil over medium-high heat, swirling to coat. Once the oil is very hot, add steaks to the skillet. Sear the steaks on the first side for 4 minutes until a brown crust has formed then flip and cook another 3-4 minutes. Using tongs, turn the steak on its sides to render the white fat and sear the edges (1-minute per edge).

Step 3 of 4

Reduce heat to medium and immediately add butter, garlic cloves and rosemary to the pan. Spoon the butter sauce over the steak, tilting the pan to get butter on your spoon. Continue spooning the sauce over the steak for a minute or until the steak is about 5-10 degrees from your desired doneness (the temperature will continue to rise another 5-10 degrees while steaks rest).

Step 4 of 4

Rest 10 minutes before slicing it to serve with the fries.
