Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a medium bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter, minced garlic, chopped capers, and finely chopped chives.
- Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed. You can use a fork or a small spatula for this.
- Transfer the garlic and chive butter mixture onto a piece of plastic wrap or parchment paper. Roll it up into a log shape, twisting the ends to seal.
- Place the log of butter in the refrigerator to chill and firm up while you prepare the steaks. This should take at least 30 minutes.
- Take the T-bone steaks out of the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature for about 15 minutes. This helps them cook more evenly.
- Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan to medium-high heat.
- Pat the steaks dry with paper towels, then lightly brush them with olive oil on both sides. Season generously with salt and pepper.
- Place the steaks on the preheated grill or grill pan.
- Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust the time according to your preferred level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature (medium-rare: 130-135°F / 54-57°C, medium: 140-145°F / 60-63°C).
- Once cooked to your liking, transfer the steaks to a plate and let them rest for 5 minutes. Resting allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
- Slice the chilled garlic and chive butter log into 8 equal discs.
- Place 1-2 discs on each steak while it's resting so the butter melts over the warm meat.
- Serve the T-bone steaks hot, garnished with additional chopped chives if desired.
Tips:
- Make sure to bring the steaks to room temperature before cooking for an even sear.
- Use a heavy-bottomed skillet or cast-iron pan to get a good sear on the steaks.
- Let the butter soften at room temperature before mixing in the garlic and chives for a smoother consistency.
- Allow the steaks to rest for a few minutes after cooking to lock in the juices.
- Season the steaks generously with salt and pepper before cooking for maximum flavor.
- Baste the steaks with the garlic-chive butter during the last few minutes of cooking for extra tenderness and flavor.
With just a few quality ingredients and simple steps, this T-bone steak with garlic & chive butter is sure to impress. The rich, garlicky butter with the fresh hint of chives elevates the perfectly cooked steaks to a whole new level of deliciousness. Enjoy this restaurant-quality dish in the comfort of your own home.
