Serving: 1 man
Ingredients:
1 1-1.25 NY Strip Steak, Organic, no antibiotics (1.5-2 inches thick)
1 heaping tbsp fresh garlic (minced-do not use jared)
1 tsp fresh thyme (chopped)
1 tsp fresh rosemary (chopped)
6 black pepper corns
1 tsp olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
1- In a medium sized zip lock bag place the meat, olive oil, garlic, thyme, rosemary, and black pepper corns. Massage the meat well so it is evenly coated with the ingredients. Place in refrigerator for 4 hours.
2- After 4 hours, take the meat out of the refrigerator and keep at room temperature for 20 minutes.
3- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
4- Sprinkle each side of the steak with salt and fresh ground pepper. Place the steak on a grill at medium high heat. Cook one side for 2 minutes and then flip to the other side cooking for another 2 minutes. You will get nice grill marks and a golden crust.
5- Put the steak in a oven safe pan and put it into the oven for 12 minutes. Your steak will be cooked at medium. Increase or decrease the cooking time depending on how you like your meat done. Use 12 minutes as your guide to work from medium cooked steak. Remember the steak I cooked is 1.5 inches thick.
6- Let the steak rest for at least 5 minutes before serving.
