🥩🔥 Oven-Seared Garlic Butter Steaks

Juicy, tender, and full of flavor — these oven-finished steaks are cooked to perfection with garlic butter for a melt-in-your-mouth result!

Ingredients

• 3 ribeye or sirloin steaks
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 2 tbsp butter
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
• 1 tsp paprika (optional)
• Fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary (optional)

Instructions

1. Prepare the steaks: Pat steaks dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt, pepper, and paprika.
2. Sear: Heat olive oil in a hot skillet over high heat. Sear each steak for about 2–3 minutes per side until nicely browned.
3. Add flavor: Lower the heat, add butter, garlic, and herbs. Spoon the melted butter over the steaks for about 1 minute.
4. Oven finish: Transfer the steaks onto a foil-lined baking tray. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 5–10 minutes, depending on your desired doneness:
   • Rare: 5 min
   • Medium: 7 min
   • Well done: 10 min
5. Rest & serve: Remove from the oven, cover loosely with foil, and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Serving Ideas

• Serve with mashed potatoes, roasted veggies, or garlic bread.
• Drizzle leftover butter from the pan over the top before serving.
