Pan-Seared Steak with Gorgonzola Butter

Yields 4 servings.

Ingredients

For the butter:

4 Tbsp. Butter, softened

4 Tbsp. Gorgonzola Cheese

1 Tbsp. Fresh Parsley, chopped

For the steaks:

4 Strip Steaks

Salt and Fresh Ground Pepper

Olive Oil

Directions

1. Remove from the refrigerator about 30 minutes prior to cooking in order for the steaks to reach room temperature before cooking. Season both sides of each steak with salt and fresh ground pepper.

2. Heat large, heavy cast iron skillet over medium heat. You can also use a grill or an open flame with a grate if camping. To test if properly heated, sprinkle a drop of water into the bottom of the skillet. If it dances, the skillet is properly heated.

3. Drizzle olive oil into the bottom of the skillet and make sure it is well-coated.

4. Place each steak into the skillet and cook over the medium heat for two minutes. Flip and cook the other side of the steak for about two minutes. Test for doneness. Cook longer if needed to reach the level of doneness desired.

5. Remove from heat and allow to rest for about five minutes in the skillet.

For the butter:

1. Cream together butter, Gorgonzola cheese, and fresh parsley.

2. Place one tablespoon of herbed butter onto the top of each steak and allow to melt over the sides.
