Ingredients
  

  • 2 each 6 to 8 ounce steaks (rib eye or strip)
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup butter, clarified
  • 1/2 cup mixed chopped herbs (I used basil, thyme, parsley, chives)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic

Instructions
 

  • Lightly coat both sides of steaks with oil. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Preheat grill to medium high setting. Add steaks to preheated grill.
  • Grill steaks approximately 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium rare. Use thermometer to temp steaks to 130-140 for medium rare to medium.
  • Move steaks to plate or cutting board to rest for approximately 10 minutes. While steaks rest, prepare sauce.
  • Heat clarified butter, herbs, garlic, and lemon juice in a small saucepan or fry pan to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes until herbs cook and absorb some butter. Butter may begin to brown, that's okay reduce heat, do not let burn. Spoon finished sauce over steaks.
