Grilled Pepper Steak With Herb Butter
Grilled Pepper Steak With Herb Butter
1 New York strip steak (2 pounds) trimmed of fat
3 tablespoons olive oil
4 tablespoons black peppercorns
4 garlic cloves, minced
salt to taste
2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh basil
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme
Heat grill to high. Pierce the steaks all over with a fork - at least
8 times - to let the oil penetrate. Rub steak with olive oil. Crack
the peppercorns with the bottom of a heavy pan. Combine pepper with
minced garlic and salt to make a paste. Cover both sides of the steak
with the mixture. For medium steak, cook on a hot grill for 4 to 5
minutes per side. Remove steak from heat and set aside. Melt the
butter in a small saucepan and add the herbs. Slice steak on the
diagonal and drizzle with the herb butter. Serves 2.
