Time 11m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 - 2 boneless ribeye or scotch fillet (, 2.5 cm / 1" thick, approx 300g/10 oz each (Note 1))
1 tbsp vegetable oil
Salt and pepper
75g / 5 tbsp unsalted butter (, cut into 1.25cm / 1/2" cubes (Note 2))
6 sprigs fresh thyme or 3 sprigs rosemary
5 garlic cloves (, peeled and smashed to split (Note 3))

Steps:

  • Bring to room temp: Take the steak out of the fridge 30 minutes prior to bring to room temperature.
  • Dry steaks: Pat dry with paper towels.
  • Heat skillet: Heat oil in a heavy based skillet over high heat until it is very hot - you should see smoke!
  • Season: Sprinkle each side of the steak generously with salt and pepper, then immediately place in the skillet.
  • Sear Side 1: Cook for 2 - 2.5 minutes until you get a great crust, then turn.
  • Garlic Butter: Leave for 1 minute, then push steaks to one side and toss in butter, garlic and thyme. BE CAREFUL - the thyme will sputter!
  • Baste: As soon as the butter is melted, continuously spoon the butter over the steak until it's cooked to your liking - 2 minutes in total for the 2nd side for medium rare (52C/125F, chart below for other doneness temps)
  • Basting also renders fat on the side of the steak - use tongs to sear the edges at the end if you want it browned more.
  • Rest: Transfer steak to a plate and cover loosely with foil, rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Serve steak with a bit of the butter from the skillet drizzled on top. Pictured in post with Crispy Smashed Potatoes.

BEEF FILLET STEAKS WITH PEPPER THYME SAUCE



Beef Fillet Steaks With Pepper Thyme Sauce image

I decided to have a treat the other night and buy some nice thick fillet steaks as we have not had a good steak in awhile. With all the food prices going up so dramatically this one-two time a week enjoyed cut of beef has now become one-two time a month affair, here's hoping food prices come down again soon. This is a simple recipe that pairs well with steak and does not require lots of effort, feel free to serve this with a cheaper cut of beef or with your favourite cut.

Categories     Steak

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon olive oil
4 steak fillets
1 celery rib, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 brown onion, chopped finely
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 teaspoon beef stock granules
300 ml double cream
1 teaspoon ground mixed peppercorns (or more)
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leave

Steps:

  • Heat half the oil in a large frying pan, cook beef on both sides, until cooked as desired. Transfer to a warm oven to keep warm.
  • If like me you have very thick steaks I find I can not cook them to a medium rare on the stove, without burning the outside so I finish them off in the oven for about 15 Min's, on a higher heat setting.
  • Heat remaining oil in same pan, add celery, onion and garlic, cook, stirring until vegetables soften.
  • Add wine; stir until liquid is reduced by half, add cream, peppercorns and stock, bring to the boil. Reduce heat; simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, about 5 Min's or until sauce thickens slightly. Stir in thyme leaves, serve immediately over steak.
  • I served mine over celeriac mash and a carrot casserole as a side but serve with your favourite veg and potato.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients: Opt for well-marbled, thick-cut fillet steaks for the best results.
  • Don't overcook the steaks: Fillet steaks are best cooked rare or medium-rare to preserve their tenderness and flavor.
  • Season the steaks generously: Use a combination of salt, pepper, and herbs like thyme and garlic to enhance the flavor of the steaks.
  • Sear the steaks in a hot pan: This will create a flavorful crust while keeping the inside of the steaks tender and juicy.
  • Baste the steaks with butter: This will help keep them moist and prevent them from drying out.
  • Let the steaks rest before serving: This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.

Conclusion:

These fillet steak recipes with thyme and garlic crust offer a delightful culinary experience that combines the tender texture of fillet steak with the aromatic flavors of thyme and garlic. Whether you prefer a simple pan-seared steak or a more elaborate dish with a creamy sauce, these recipes provide a variety of options to suit your taste and skill level. By following the tips and techniques mentioned above, you can create a perfectly cooked fillet steak that is sure to impress your dinner guests or simply indulge in a luxurious meal at home.
