Panfried Flank Steak with Garlic Butter

1 ½ lb flank steak, about 3/4"thick
1 pinch salt
1 pinch black pepper
3 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon finely chopped parsley
4 tbsp butter
3 whole Garlic cloves, crushed


Pat steak dry with paper towels, then season liberally on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat a large cast-iron skillet over high heat. When pan begins to smoke, coat with oil, then add steak (be careful; oil will spatter) and sear, until almost black, for about 4 minutes on each side (for rare). Don't move meat until ready to turn or crust will break.

Transfer steak to a platter and top with garlic butter. Cover loosely with foil to keep warm. Allow steak to rest for 10 minutes, then cut across the grain into 1/4" slices. Spoon juices over steak and top with parsley.

GARLIC BUTTER: Heat butter and garlic in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook until garlic is fragrant, about 5 minutes. Remove and discard garlic. Keep butter warm. Makes enough to top 4 servings of steak.

Here's the post that I made. It's my first time making the stuffed tomatoes but I've had them and they are good.

 I like flank steak. The most important thing to remember is to not over cook it and to slice it across the grain, then it will be tender. The garlic butter sauce sounds really good.
