Steak and Garlic Butter

• 1 pound steak of your choice
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Side Ingredients

• 2 cups cooked rice
• 1 cup steamed broccoli
• 1/4 cup chopped parsley

Instructions

1. Season the Steak: Generously season the steak with salt and black pepper on both sides to enhance the flavor.
2. Prepare Garlic Butter: In a skillet over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter and add the minced garlic, cooking until fragrant but not browned, to infuse the butter with rich garlic flavor.
3. Cook the Steak: Place the steak in the skillet with the garlic butter and cook it to your preferred level of doneness, turning occasionally and continuously basting it with the garlic butter for maximum flavor and juiciness.
4. Prepare Sides: While the steak cooks, ensure the rice is cooked and the broccoli is steamed until tender but still vibrant green.
5. Assemble the Bowl: Slice the cooked steak into strips and layer it over the cooked rice, add the steamed broccoli beside it, then drizzle the remaining garlic butter from the pan over the entire bowl.
6. Garnish and Serve: Finish by sprinkling chopped parsley on top for a fresh, herby note and serve immediately while warm.

Notes

• Choose your favorite cut of steak such as ribeye, sirloin, or filet mignon for best results.
• Make sure not to burn the garlic when melting butter as it will turn bitter.
• You can substitute steamed broccoli with other vegetables like asparagus or green beans based on preference.
• Cook rice in advance to save time or use leftover rice.
• For a richer flavor, let the steak rest a few minutes before slicing to retain juices.
