Sear Roasted Rib Steak With Garlic Butter Food

SEAR-ROASTED RIB STEAK WITH GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• Chop the garlic finely. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon salt over the garlic and continue to chop it, occasionally smashing and smearing the garlic with the flat side of the knife, until the garlic becomes pastelike. (Alternatively, mash the garlic and salt together in a mortar and pestle.) Put the garlic paste, butter, thyme, and pepper in a small bowl. Fold the softened butter over and onto the garlic and thyme, mashing it down with the back of a spoon or spatula. Use a sheet of plastic wrap to help shape the butter into a log, wrap the log well with the plastic wrap, and refrigerate until ready to use. (The garlic butter can be made up to 3 days ahead; it can also be frozen, well wrapped, for a couple of months.).
• Melt half of the garlic-butter mixture in a small pan over medium heat. (Rewrap and save the other half for future use; it's great stuff under the skin of a chicken before roasting or tossing into the broth of steamed mussels.).
• Heat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• In a large ovenproof saute pan, heat the vegetable oil over high heat until very hot. Season the steaks with a little salt and pepper. Add the steaks to the pan and brown them well on 1 side, about 5 minutes. Turn the steaks and brush them liberally with the garlic butter. Finish cooking the steaks in the oven, brushing them occasionally with more garlic butter, until done, about another 5 minutes. (The time will vary depending on how you like your steaks cooked and how thick they are.) Remove the steaks from the oven and allow them to rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve smaller steaks whole or sliced thinly across the grain. Cut larger steaks into 2 servings or into thin slices. Spoon any remaining juices from the pan onto the meat as well.

CHARRED GARLIC RUBBED RIB STEAK

Steps:

• Combine the oil, salt, pepper, dry thyme and garlic in a small bowl. Using this dry rub to season the beef, brush or rub the steaks with this seasoning mix and let marinate at room temperature for 20 minutes.
• Over a hot barbecue grill, or under an oven broiler that has been preheated for at least 20 minutes, cook the steaks on both sides to the desired doneness. Generally, a steak of this size, cooked over a barbecue grill, will be mediumrare within about 8 to 10 minutes (4 minutes on each side) with a blackened exterior and a warm pink interior. Check for doneness by pressing gently with a cautious finger.

PAN SEARED & OVEN ROASTED GARLIC BUTTER STEAK

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475 degrees.
• Mix parsley and garlic. Sprinkle lightly with salt and mash slightly to mix, then mix with butter.
• Melt the butter mixture over low heat in a small pan.
• Season both sides of the steak with salt and pepper and place a heavy pan or iron skillet over high heat. Lightly coat pan with oil when hot. Sear the steak until browned on one side (5 minutes). Turn the steak and brush the top generously with the flavored butter.
• Place into the heated oven and cook to your preference (check after 5 minutes by cutting into the center of one of the steaks). The meat will continue to cook from residual heat, so remove it from the oven when slightly less done than you wish.
• Pour remaining butter and any pan juices over the meat and let it stand for a few minutes before serving.
