In summer, Canadians love to indulge in fresh, simply prepared, grilled steaks. Bring the sizzling steaks to the table and this simple butter can be placed on top to melt. It will accent the flavors of the meat, making each bite rich and delectable. Ingredients:
1/2 cup softened butter |
1/4 cup shallot, finely minced |
1 garlic clove, smashed and minced |
2 tablespoons flat leaf parsley, minced |
1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped |
1/2 teaspoon fresh tarragon, minced |
4 sirloin strip steaks (about 6 oz. each) |
1 tablespoon coarse salt |
1 tablespoon fresh cracked pepper |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, combine butter with shallots, garlic, parsley, chives and tarragon until well blended. Spoon butter onto a sheet of plastic wrap and roll into a log about 1-inch in diameter.
2. Twist ends to enclose completely. Refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour and up to 2 weeks.
3. Prehaet grill or grill pan over high heat (preheat oven to 350F if indoors).
4. Let steaks come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. Sprinkle steaks with salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil,. Sear steaks until browned, about 3 minutes per side.
5. Move to indirect heat or the oven.
6. Cook until desired doneness, about 5 minutes for medium rare. Let rest for 5 minutes.
7. Serve on a warmed plate with a 1/2 -inch slice of butter on each steak.
8. TIP: Store extra butter in the refrigerator. Stir it into cooked hot potatoes, pasta or rice to add flavor. It also works over grilled fish, pork, veal, chicken and lamb.
