Description
Tender, juicy roasted steaks are elevated with a bright, herbaceous mint gremolata topping in this easy, delicious family-style meal.
Ingredients
– 2 pounds beef sirloin steaks
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 teaspoon kosher salt
– 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
– 1 cup packed fresh mint leaves
– 2 garlic cloves, minced
– 1 tablespoon lemon zest
– 1 tablespoon lemon juice
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Pat the steaks dry with paper towels and season them evenly with salt and pepper.
3. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large, oven-safe skillet over high heat.
4. Sear the steaks for 2-3 minutes per side until a nice brown crust forms.
5. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast the steaks for 8-10 minutes for medium-rare, or until they reach your desired doneness.
6. While the steaks are roasting, prepare the mint gremolata. In a small bowl, combine the mint leaves, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Mix well.
7. Remove the steaks from the oven and let them rest for 5-10 minutes.
8. Slice the steaks and top them with the mint gremolata. Serve immediately.
Notes
For best results, use high-quality, fresh mint leaves. The gremolata can also be made in advance and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
