Rosemary & Garlic-Basted Sirloin Steak
Rosemary & Garlic-Basted Sirloin Steak
Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless top sirloin steak, trimmed
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- ¾ teaspoon kosher salt, divided
- ½ teaspoon ground pepper, divided
- 4 medium cloves garlic, minced
- 2 medium shallots, sliced lengthwise
- 1 ½ tablespoons butter
- 1 sprig fresh rosemary, plus more for garnish
Directions
- Let steak stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Pat dry with paper towels. Brush with oil and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
- Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add steak and cook for 1 minute. Add garlic, shallots, butter and rosemary; cook, tilting the pan slightly to pool the butter and drippings on one side, for 1 minute. Use a spoon to baste the steak with the butter mixture. Flip the steak and cook, basting occasionally, until an instant-read thermometer registers 52 C for medium-rare, 2 minutes more. Transfer the steak to a clean cutting board and top with the shallots, garlic and rosemary. Cover loosely with foil; let stand for 10 minutes.
- Discard the rosemary sprig. Thinly slice the steak against the grain and transfer to a serving platter. Spoon drippings from the pan and cutting board over the steak. Season with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper and garnish with more rosemary, if desired.

Use your hands to thoroughly mix. Roll into balls a little larger than the size of a golf ball. Add the remaining oil to the pan and turn the heat to medium. Add the meatballs, pressing on each side to create mini patties. Work in batches if needed to avoid crowding. Cook for a total of five to seven minutes, or until cooked through. Divide the avocado, grapefruit, and patties onto plates. Season with basil and salt as desired. Enjoy! NOTES Leftovers: The salad is best enjoyed fresh. Refrigerate the patties in an airtight container for up to three days. Freeze the patties for up to three months. Serving Size: One serving is approximately four mini patties, and half of each an avocado and grapefruit. More Flavor: For the best flavor and texture, rinse the liver under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Place in a shallow dish and pour in enough milk to cover. Soak for 30 to 60 minutes maximum. Place in a colander and rinse the milk off. Pat dry. No Chicken Liver: Use beef liver instead.
