Instructions
Prepare the Compound Butter: Mix softened butter with minced garlic to create a garlic butter compound. Set aside.
Season the Steak: Generously season both sides of the steak with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Cook the Steak: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add butter and garlic. Place the steak in the skillet and cook to desired doneness, flipping as needed.
Add Garlic Butter: Top the cooked steak with the prepared garlic butter compound while still hot to melt and infuse flavor.
Rest and Serve: Let the steak rest for a few minutes before serving to allow juices to redistribute.
