The recipe explores various cooking methods, including grilling, pan-searing, and oven-roasting, allowing for a versatile approach to achieving tender, juicy steaks.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lamb shoulder steaks (approximately 1-inch thick)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, finely chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preparation: Trim any excess fat from the steaks and pat dry with paper towels.
  2. Marinate: Combine olive oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Coat the steaks evenly and marinate for at least 1 hour or overnight in the refrigerator.
  3. Cooking:
    • Grilling: Preheat grill to medium-high. Grill steaks 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare.
    • Pan-Searing: Heat a heavy skillet over high heat. Sear steaks 3-4 minutes per side.
    • Oven-Roasting: Preheat oven to 325°F. Sear steaks on both sides in a skillet, then transfer to oven and roast to desired doneness.
  4. Resting: Let steaks rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.

Notes

  • Adjust cooking time based on steak thickness and desired doneness.
  • Resting the meat is crucial for juiciness.
