Quick Steak Dinner for Dad for 2

Instructions:

1. Remove steaks from the fridge 30 minutes before cooking to temper the meat.
2. Pat every side of the steak aggressively with paper towels to remove surface moisture.
3. Generously coat all sides and edges of the steaks with kosher salt and coarse black pepper.
4. Set a cast iron skillet over high heat and add avocado oil; heat until the oil begins to shimmer and barely smoke.
5. Carefully lay steaks in the pan, pressing down slightly for full surface contact. Cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes per side until a deep mahogany crust forms.
6. Lower heat to medium. Toss in the unsalted butter, smashed garlic, rosemary, and thyme.
7. Once the butter foams and smells nutty, tilt the pan and spoon the aromatic butter over the steaks continuously to baste.
8. Remove steaks from the pan and let them rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing to allow juices to redistribute.
