About the Meal
A sirloin steak is a cut of beef that is both tender and flavorful. It’s a popular choice for many steak lovers due to its rich flavor profile and firm texture. When cooked to perfection, a sirloin steak can be served with a variety of sides, such as garlic mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad.
Recipe: Grilled Sirloin Steak with Herb Butter
Ingredients:
- 1.5-2 pounds sirloin steak
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
- In a small bowl, mix together the softened butter, garlic, parsley, and thyme until well combined.
- Season the sirloin steak with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Place the steak on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check for internal temperatures: 130ยฐF – 135ยฐF for medium-rare, 140ยฐF – 145ยฐF for medium, and 150ยฐF – 155ยฐF for medium-well.
- Once the steak is cooked, remove it from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes.
- During the resting period, spread a tablespoon or two of the herb butter on top of the steak.
- Serve the sirloin steak hot, garnished with additional fresh herbs if desired.
Tips and Variations
- For added flavor, marinate the sirloin steak in your favorite seasonings and acids (such as olive oil, soy sauce, or balsamic vinegar) for 30 minutes to an hour before grilling.
- If you prefer a more well-done steak, cook it for an additional 1-2 minutes per side.
- Consider serving the sirloin steak with a side of roasted vegetables or a hearty salad to balance out the richness of the dish.
Enjoy your delicious grilled sirloin steak!
