Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb Bavette steak
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 3 minced garlic cloves
  • 1/4 cup brewed barley tea
  • 1 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Remove the Bavette steak from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes. Pat dry and season both sides generously with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
  2. Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil once hot. Carefully place the seasoned steak in the skillet and sear each side for about 4-5 minutes until it reaches an internal temperature of 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare.
  3. Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest for 5-10 minutes while you prepare the sauce.
  4. In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add unsalted butter. Once melted, sauté minced garlic for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  5. Pour in the brewed barley tea and simmer for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly before adding heavy cream. Stir continuously until thickened, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Slice the rested steak against the grain and drizzle with creamy barley tea garlic sauce before serving.
