A quick and easy recipe for perfectly grilled New York strip steaks topped with a rich garlic herb butter, delivering juicy, flavorful, and indulgent steak dinners.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 New York Strip Steaks, about 12 ounces (340 grams) each, 1-inch thick
  • Kosher salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 tablespoons (about 60 grams) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
  • 2 cloves fresh garlic, minced finely
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
  • Optional: 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
  • Lemon zest from half a lemon

Instructions

  1. Prepare the garlic herb butter: In a small bowl, combine softened unsalted butter, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, parsley, thyme (if using), and lemon zest. Mix thoroughly until well combined. Cover and refrigerate while you prepare the steaks (about 10 minutes).
  2. Season the steaks: Pat the New York strip steaks dry with paper towels. Lightly brush both sides with olive oil. Generously season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Let rest at room temperature for 15-20 minutes.
  3. Preheat the grill: Heat your grill to high, aiming for around 450-500°F (230-260°C). If using charcoal, wait until coals are glowing red with a light layer of ash.
  4. Grill the steaks: Place steaks on the hot grill. Grill for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare (internal temperature of 130-135°F / 54-57°C). Adjust timing for preferred doneness. Avoid flipping multiple times; one flip each side is enough.
  5. Check doneness: Use a meat thermometer or the finger test method to check firmness. Remember steaks will continue to cook slightly after removing from heat.
  6. Rest the steak: Transfer steaks to a plate and let rest for 5-10 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.
  7. Top with garlic herb butter: While still warm, spoon a generous dollop of the prepared garlic herb butter on each steak. The butter will melt and create a luscious sauce.
  8. Serve and enjoy: Pair with your favorite sides and enjoy the savory, buttery goodness.

Notes

Bring steaks to room temperature before grilling for even cooking. Use tongs to flip steaks to avoid piercing and losing juices. Let steaks rest after grilling to keep them juicy. Garlic herb butter can be made ahead and refrigerated. For dairy-free, substitute butter with plant-based spread and olive oil.
