🥩 Crispy-Crusted Steak with Herb Butter 🧈
A mouthwatering steak with a crispy, golden-brown crust and a tender, juicy center, served with rich herb butter. This dish is perfect for any steak lover!
📌 Ingredients:
For the Steak:
2 boneless ribeye steaks (or your preferred cut)
2 tbsp olive oil
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp smoked paprika
Salt & pepper to taste
For the Herb Butter:
1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
1 tbsp fresh thyme, chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
Salt & pepper to taste
🍽 Instructions:
Prepare the Steak:
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat the steaks dry with paper towels, and season them generously with salt and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steaks for 2-3 minutes on each side, until a golden-brown crust forms.
Make the Crispy Crust:
In a shallow bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
After searing the steaks, press them into the breadcrumb mixture, coating each side evenly.
Finish Cooking the Steak:
Transfer the steaks to a baking sheet and place them in the oven for 5-7 minutes, or until they reach your desired doneness (for medium-rare, aim for 130°F/54°C internal temperature).
Make the Herb Butter:
While the steaks are baking, mix the softened butter with the fresh parsley, thyme, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
Serve:
Remove the steaks from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes. Slice the steak against the grain and serve with a dollop of herb butter on top.
👩🍳 Pro Tip: For an extra touch, serve with some mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables to complement the flavors!
