Ingredients

• 2 pieces (8-10 ounces each) sirloin steak
• 6 whole garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons butter

Directions

Step 1

Place the sirloin steaks on a clean cutting board. Using a sharp knife, make small slits (about 1-inch deep) across the surface of the steaks, spacing them about 1 inch apart.

Step 2

Peel the garlic cloves and cut them lengthwise into halves or quarters, depending on their size. You want the pieces to easily fit into the slits in the steak without protruding too much.

Step 3

Stuff each slit with a piece of garlic, pressing it in firmly until it is secure. Repeat for both sides of the steak.

Step 4

Season both sides of the steaks evenly with kosher salt and black pepper.

Step 5

In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the steaks to the pan and sear for 3-4 minutes on one side without moving them, allowing a crust to form.

Step 6

Flip the steaks and sear the other side for another 3-4 minutes, then reduce the heat to medium.

Step 7

Add the remaining olive oil, butter, and rosemary sprigs to the skillet. Once the butter is melted, tilt the pan slightly and carefully spoon the melted butter over the steaks to baste them. Continue basting for 2-3 minutes.

Step 8

Check the internal temperature of the steaks using a meat thermometer: 125°F for rare, 135°F for medium-rare, 145°F for medium. Adjust cooking time accordingly.

Step 9

Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a cutting board, covered loosely with foil, for 5-7 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.

Step 10

Serve the garlic-stuffed sirloin steaks hot, garnished with the cooked rosemary sprigs, alongside your choice of sides.
