Ingredients
  

For the Steak
  • 1 lb sirloin or ribeye steak Choose tender cuts for the best melt-in-your-mouth experience.

  • salt and pepper Basic seasoning to enhance the steak's natural flavors.
For the Garlic Butter
  • 4 cloves garlic Fresh and minced, key to enhancing the savory profile.
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter Provides richness; better control of salt content.
