Delicious and savory, this Parmesan Garlic Steak Recipe is sure to become a family favorite. Try it tonight for a truly unforgettable dinner!
Start by patting the steaks dry with a paper towel. This helps ensure a nice sear. Rub both sides of the steaks with olive oil, then season them generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Set aside and let the flavors marry while you move on to the next step.
In a mixing bowl, combine the grated parmesan cheese, minced garlic, dried oregano, and a pinch of red pepper flakes if you like a little heat. Mix everything together until well combined.
Take the seasoned steaks and press the parmesan garlic mixture onto both sides of each steak, ensuring an even coating. Gently press the mixture into the steaks to help it adhere.
Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan to medium-high heat. Once hot, lightly oil the grates or pan to prevent sticking. Place the coated steaks onto the grill or pan, and let them cook for about 4-5 minutes per side for a perfect medium-rare. Adjust the cooking time based on your preferred level of doneness.
Once the steaks are cooked to your liking, remove them from the grill or pan and transfer them to a cutting board. Allow the steaks to rest for a few minutes, which helps the juices redistribute and results in a more tender and juicy steak. Sprinkle the steaks with fresh parsley for a burst of color and flavor.
Slice the steak against the grain into thick, juicy pieces. Arrange them on a platter and get ready to indulge in your delectable homemade parmesan garlic steak. Serve alongside your favorite side dishes or try one of the suggestions mentioned in the blog post.
Pro tip: For a real flavor explosion, squeeze a bit of fresh lemon juice over the sliced steak just before serving!
