1tsp. olive oil, for searing the steak
2-3Tbs.butter
2clovesgarlic, crushed, may substitute 1/2-1 tsp. granulated garlic
1-2sprigs fresh rosemary, optional
Instructions
Remove the steaks from refrigeration 1 hour before you want to cook them; unwrap the steaks and season them with the steak seasoning on both sides. Let the steaks rest on the counter, uncovered, during this time. **Resting the meat before you cook it is an essential part of this recipe - don't skip it!

To a hot large skillet over medium high heat, add a good swish of olive oil. As soon as the oil is nicely hot, add the seasoned steaks, one or two at time (so you don't over crowd the skillet), browning the steaks on each side, about one minute per side, just to medium-rare doneness. Remove the steaks to a platter as you work; repeat with the remaining steaks; cover to keep warm.

Reduce the heat to medium; add the butter, garlic, and rosemary sprigs to the drippings in the skillet; cook just 30-60 seconds, only until the garlic is fragrant and light golden brown. **Don't overcook since the butter can burn and the garlic will turn bitter quickly.
