Ingredients
  

  • Chuck Steak
  • olive oil or avocado oil
  • butter Butter
  • garlic cloves smashed Garlic and herbs add aroma
  • Salt and black pepper
  • smoked paprika optional
  • Fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary

Instructions
 

Step 1: Prep the Steak

  • Pat the chuck steak dry. Season well with salt, pepper, garlic, and paprika.

Step 2: Heat the Pan

  • Set your skillet over medium-high heat. Let it get hot too soon and you won’t get that delicious sear.

Step 3: Sear and Develop Crust

  • Place the steak on the pan and listen to the sizzling sound. Grill each side for 4-5 minutes. Add butter and garlic halfway through cooking.

Step 4: Lower Heat and Cook Through

  • Reduce heat to medium. Continue cooking until the internal temperature hits your preference:
    130°F for medium-rare
    140°F for medium
    155°F+ if you like it fully cooked your words

Step 5: Rest Before Cutting

  • Transfer steak to a board and cover loosely with foil. Let it sit for 10 minutes.
