  • 1 beef round eye steak 1 to 1.5 inches thick
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 2 garlic cloves crushed
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1-2 sprigs fresh rosemary or thyme

  • Prep the Steak: Pat the steak dry and season generously with salt and pepper.
  • Heat the Pan: Heat olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  • Sear the Steak: Cook the steak for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare (130°F internal temperature).
