Sear Roasted Steak
Sear Roasting steak keeps it moist and flavorful. For the very best flavor make sure you use fresh herbs in the rub. Make sure you serve these with the included brown butter recipe.

2 cloves minced garlic 1/2 tablespoon minced fresh onions |
1 tablespoon of each fresh herb: thyme, rosemary and fennel leaves

- Set burner to high heat. Sear steaks for 1-2 minutes per side.
