Ingredients

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 tablespoons butter
1 onion, chopped
4 (4 ounce) beef top sirloin steaks
1 clove garlic, cut in half lengthwise
¼ cup Irish whiskey (such as Jameson®)
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

Heat vegetable oil and butter in a heavy skillet over medium heat until butter has melted. Cook and stir onions in butter and oil until lightly golden brown, about 10 minutes. Push onions aside with a spatula.
Rub steaks with cut sides of garlic clove.
Place steaks in the skillet, leaving the onions to the side, and cook over medium-high heat until meat is browned but still lightly pink inside, 2 to 4 minutes per side.
Remove the skillet from heat. Slowly pour Irish whiskey into the hot skillet (be careful, whiskey fumes are flammable). Mix browned onions into whiskey and bring to a simmer over medium-low heat.
Sprinkle steaks with salt, black pepper, and parsley; turn steaks over in whiskey pan sauce to coat both sides, and serve drizzled with sauce.

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

1 - 2 boneless ribeye or scotch fillet (, 2.5 cm / 1" thick, approx 300g/10 oz each (Note 1))
1 tbsp vegetable oil
Salt and pepper
75g / 5 tbsp unsalted butter (, cut into 1.25cm / 1/2" cubes (Note 2))
6 sprigs fresh thyme or 3 sprigs rosemary
5 garlic cloves (, peeled and smashed to split (Note 3))

Steps:

Bring to room temp: Take the steak out of the fridge 30 minutes prior to bring to room temperature.
Dry steaks: Pat dry with paper towels.
Heat skillet: Heat oil in a heavy based skillet over high heat until it is very hot - you should see smoke!
Season: Sprinkle each side of the steak generously with salt and pepper, then immediately place in the skillet.
Sear Side 1: Cook for 2 - 2.5 minutes until you get a great crust, then turn.
Garlic Butter: Leave for 1 minute, then push steaks to one side and toss in butter, garlic and thyme. BE CAREFUL - the thyme will sputter!
Baste: As soon as the butter is melted, continuously spoon the butter over the steak until it's cooked to your liking - 2 minutes in total for the 2nd side for medium rare (52C/125F, chart below for other doneness temps)
Basting also renders fat on the side of the steak - use tongs to sear the edges at the end if you want it browned more.
Rest: Transfer steak to a plate and cover loosely with foil, rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
Serve steak with a bit of the butter from the skillet drizzled on top. Pictured in post with Crispy Smashed Potatoes.
