Steak Recipe
INGREDIENTS
Your favorite steak
Kosher Salt
Butter and/or high heat oil (vegetable or avocado)
Butter Sauce
**No need to be precise in the measurements**
4 TBS Butter
Thyme (and/or sage, tarragon, rosemary), 1-3 sprigs fresh or 1 tsp dried
1 medium Shallot sliced in rounds
2 cloves Garlic, sliced or crushed
Instructions
Let steak sit and come to room temperature. Salt liberally, make it look like it's wearing a wet
white t-shirt.
Heat pan over medium high add butter and oil to pan. Sear steak over medium high heat 3-6
minutes per side depending on thickness and desired doneness.
Remove from pan.
Wipe out any burned bits with paper towel. Add a few tbs of butter, tyme, shallot and garlic.
Cook over medium heat until fragrant and shallot/garlic are soft, 3-5 minutes. Pour over steak.
**Can make butter sauce in separate pan, put everything in pan and melt over low while cooking
steak.
Steak Bites — works great for a crowd/party
For bites, cut steaks (preferable top sirloin or splurge on tenderloin) into 1 inch cubes. Salt well.
Sear in batches over medium high, not overcrowding pan. Sear for 1-2 minutes per side. These
cook much faster than a whole steak. Remove from pan. Add more oil if needed for remaining
steak. When all steak bites are seared toss with herbed butter and serve immediately.
Mashed Cauliflower
INGREDIENTS
1 head Cauliflower
1⁄4 cup Heavy Cream
1⁄4 cup butter
1⁄4 cup grated Parmesan Cheese
Salt and Pepper
INSTRUCTIONS
Chop cauliflower coarsely, can use stems. Steam until very soft. In a deep bowl add heavy
cream, butter, parmesan cheese, large pinch salt and pepper. Blend with an immersion blender
or mash by hand. Taste, add more seasonings as needed.
**can also use riced cauliflower fresh or frozen. I bake the frozen riced cauliflower on a baking
sheet covered with foil at 400 for around 10 minutes. Check and cook longer if needed.
