Our Favorite Steak Butter
Servings 8 servings
Savory compound butter is sliced into coins and melted on top of steaks for a juicy, flavorful butter-infused bite every time!
Ingredients
- ½ cup butter softened
- 1 teaspoon parsley
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme or 2 teaspoons fresh parsley
- 1 clove garlic, minced or ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon lemon zest
- ⅛ smoked paprika
- kosher salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in a bowl and mix with a hand mixer until smooth.
- Spread onto a piece of plastic wrap and roll into a small log, tying the ends of the wrap.
- Keep in the refrigerator until it is hard.
Notes
Fresh garlic is a great addition but uses garlic powder or roasted garlic for a more subtle flavor.
Use a hand mixer for best results, this adds air into the butter so it melts well!
Add a generous amount of salt to the butter, it flavors the steak nicely.
This butter can be made 1 week ahead of time and kept in the fridge or frozen in coins.
Use steak butter on meats or veggies of all kinds.
