Ingredients:

• 2 New York strip, ribeye, or filet mignon steaks (about 1 to 1.5 inches thick)
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp sea salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning (or mix of thyme, rosemary, and oregano)
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tbsp unsalted butter
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Platinum Grill Pan

   • Heat the grill pan over medium-high heat for 3-5 minutes until hot.

2. Season the Steaks

   • Pat steaks dry with a paper towel.
   • Brush each steak with olive oil.
   • Mix salt, black pepper, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder in a small bowl.
   • Rub the seasoning mix evenly over both sides of the steaks.

3. Grill the Steaks

   • Place steaks in the hot Platinum Grill Pan and press down lightly for good grill marks.
   • Cook for 4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust based on your preference.

4. Add Garlic Butter for Extra Flavor

   • In the last minute of cooking, add butter and minced garlic to the pan.
   • Tilt the pan slightly and use a spoon to baste the steaks with the melted garlic butter.

5. Check Doneness & Rest

   • Use a meat thermometer for accuracy:
     • Rare: 120-125°F
     • Medium-Rare: 130-135°F
     • Medium: 140-145°F
     • Well-Done: 160°F+
   • Remove from the pan and let the steaks rest for 5-10 minutes.

6. Garnish & Serve

   • Sprinkle fresh chopped parsley over the steaks for extra flavor.
   • Serve with grilled asparagus, roasted potatoes, or a fresh salad.
