Cowboy Butter Sauce

How do I soften the butter? You’ll want to dice it into small pieces then microwave in very short bursts (4-5 seconds). Whilst you could, I personally don’t like completely melting the butter because the ingredients separate. Having the butter a little creamy keeps every well-distributed.

Step 1

Combine all of the cowboy butter ingredients in a small mixing bowl.

Step 2

Pat the steaks dry then generously season both sides with salt and pepper. Add a large cast-iron or heavy-based pan over high heat. Once the pan is very hot, add the oil and leave for 5-10 seconds. For medium-rare, add the steaks and leave undisturbed for 2 minutes. Flip them over and fry for 2 minutes, then remove and rest them to one side for 5 minutes.

Step 3

Serve the steak with your desired amount of butter and enjoy!
