Time 45m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1 tablespoon finely minced onion
1 tablespoon white wine
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1 teaspoon seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)

  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Coat steaks with 2 teaspoons olive oil; sprinkle with steak seasoning.
  • Cook steaks until they are beginning to firm and have reached your desired doneness, 5 to 7 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Transfer steaks to a platter and loosely tent with a piece of aluminum foil.

  • Don't be afraid to experiment: There are endless possibilities when it comes to combining flavors and ingredients. Get creative and try new things.
  • Use a variety of cooking methods: Don't just stick to one cooking method. Try grilling, sautéing, roasting, and baking to add different flavors and textures to your dish.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking, make sure to not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the food from cooking evenly and can result in soggy or undercooked food.
  • Season to taste: Always taste your dish before serving and adjust the seasoning accordingly. This is the best way to ensure that your dish is perfectly seasoned.
  • Garnish your dish: A simple garnish can make a big difference in the presentation of your dish. Try adding a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a drizzle of olive oil, or a squeeze of lemon.
