One Pan Steak dinner

 

Perfectly seasoned and grilled steak with asparagus and mushrooms, accompanied by a delectable garlic herb butter! There is only one pan. 30 minutes of clean-up time. That's all!

 

INGREDIENTS:

 

5 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided

1 clove garlic, minced

1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley leaves

1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme leaves

1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lemon zest

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

2 (1 1/4-inch-thick) New York strip steaks

1 shallot, minced

1 pound fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces

8 ounces cremini mushrooms, halved

 

Cast aside 3 tablespoons butter, garlic, parsley, thyme, lemon zest, salt, and pepper in a small dish.

Season the steaks to taste with salt and pepper.

In a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat, melt 1 tablespoon butter. Place the steaks in the center of the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until a brown crust forms. Cook for a further 4-5 minutes, or until desired doneness, using tongs; put aside and keep warm.

In the skillet, melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Stir in the shallot, asparagus, and mushrooms. Cook, turning occasionally, for 3-4 minutes, or until the mushrooms are soft and browned and the asparagus is crisp-tender and brilliant green.

Serve immediately
