- 1 flat iron steak brought to room temperature
- 3-4 cloves roasted garlic
- 1 sprig rosemary
- 1 regular shallot thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Kosher salt to taste
- Fresh cracked black pepper to taste
Preparation Steps
Gather all the tools and ingredients.
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Slice the shallot thinly.
For the Crispy Shallots
Add the olive oil to a cast iron pan and heat over medium-high heat. When the oil shimmers, add the sliced shallot and a pinch of kosher salt.
Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring until the shallots begin to crisp.
Remove from the pan with a fork or tongs, leaving the oil in the pan. Set aside.
For the Pan-Seared Steak
Add the butter to the hot skillet. Turn the heat to high. When the butter has melted, lay the beef carefully so as not to splash the hot oil.
Add the rosemary to the pan, on the side.
After 2 minutes, using tongs, flip the meat. The beef should be nicely browned.
Cook for 2 minutes, basting the steak with the rosemary butter from the pan. Then put the pan in the oven.
Cook in the oven for 5-6 minutes, depending on your desired level of doneness.
Remove from the oven and set on the stove. Flip with tongs and baste again.
Remove the steak from the pan and set on the cutting board. Cover with foil and allow to rest for 5-10 minutes.
Slice against the grain, top with the crispy shallots and roasted garlic.
Serve hot and enjoy!
