Steak with Garlic Butter is a simple dish of pan seared steaks served with garlic infused butter compound

You can prepare your steak in many ways, with butter sauce, mushroom sauce, caramelized onions, miso, cream and tomato sauce to name some, while they are good in their own ways sometimes you just want steak as it is, salted, peppered and lightly buttered so you can enjoy beef on its almost purest form. That is what we will be preparing today a simple steak of beef with simple garlic butter compound.

Now it looks like I am contradicting what I am saying, pure form but with butter? Well not really, butter is there just to enhance the flavour, but it will not be a prominent flavour. Cooking method of this steak will entail constant basting in butter which deepens the crust on the outside and helps the steak cook more quickly. And yes like you guessed, whether you like it or not, fat is bad-ass tasty and butter is the best form of fat you need for steak, while marbling helps what’s inside butter is good for the crust.

So stop whatever you are doing, do yourself a favour, prepare steak and smother it with lots of butter.
