You can always make these on the grill, but the grill isn’t accessible for everyone all-year-long, and PLUS… these are fried in a little oil+butter, which is ALWAYS a good thing. FRYING STEAKS IN BUTTER. Yes, that’s a good thing. These babies are simply marinated. Simple: Garlic Rub + Olive Oil + Pepper + Chopped, Fresh Oregano. That’s totally it. Wrap them up in plastic wrap and let them sit for an hour at room temperature (because steaks cook more evenly at room temperature). Just before cooking, you’ll sprinkle some chunky kosher salt on them. The steaks are fried in half butter and half olive oil…
…and when you flip them, you’ll add a half lemon to the pan so it can get all nice and soft and slightly caramelized.
When the steaks come off the pan, let ’em “rest” for a while before serving, and squeeze that pan-fried lemon juice on top. Ready to serve to your hungry family… or partner… or romantic date or whoever. This recipe is designed for two- but go ahead and mess with it and double or triple it, as needed! If you check out the recipe below, you will notice that I include all kinds of tips in the recipe- for changing things up or just things to keep in mind to make the recipe the best that it can be. I include these kinds of tips for every single one of the 195 recipes in my cookbook! THERE’S MORE! 6 of my blogging friends are celebrating The Recipe Girl Cookbook this week too!
