Instructions

0/8

Remove the steaks from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before cooking to bring them to room temperature, ensuring even grilling.

In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, and finely chopped parsley, then set aside to let the flavors meld.

Preheat your outdoor grill to high heat, around 450°F (230°C), and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.

Pat the steaks dry with paper towels, brush them with olive oil, and season generously on all sides with kosher salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and garlic powder.

Place the steaks on the hot grill grates and sear for 4 to 5 minutes without moving them, until deep grill marks form.

Flip the steaks and grill for another 4 to 5 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (57°C) for a perfect medium-rare.

Transfer the steaks to a clean cutting board and immediately top each one with a generous dollop of the prepared garlic herb butter.

Tent the steaks loosely with aluminum foil and let them rest for 5 to 10 minutes to lock in the juices before slicing and serving.
