Grilled New York Strip Steak with Garlic Butter Mushrooms

INGREDIENTS

• 2 New York strip loin steaks, with the excess fat, trimmed
• 6 oz Steak-cut mushrooms or cut them in quarters
• 1 TBSP olive oil
• ¼ cup of butter softened
• 3 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1 tsp each of fresh thyme, rosemary, and oregano
• Kosher salt & fresh ground pepper

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Start by taking your steaks out of the refrigerator and season them with salt and pepper. You can even season them the night before if you are organized. 30-40 minutes is the minimum time you should allow to season the steaks.
2. Preheat your grill to medium-high to high (450-500) degrees F
3. To make the garlic butter, mix the butter, garlic and fresh herbs in a bowl and set aside for the moment.
4. Place a large cast-iron skillet on the grill and allow to heat through.
5. To the hot skillet add the olive oil, a dollop (1-2 TBSP) of garlic butter into the pan along with the mushrooms. Shake the pan (or stir) to coat all the mushrooms. BE CAREFUL THE PAN WILL BE VERY HOT!! Use a good quality oven mitt if you are picking up the skillet!
6. If you need to, add a little more garlic butter to the skillet, just make sure you keep about 2 TBSP in reserve, one for each steak.
7. When the mushrooms are just about done put your steaks on the grill.
8. Only turn the steaks once, you can, however, move the steaks 45 degrees while cooking on each side to get that XX grill pattern on the steaks.
9. Once the steaks have reached the desired doneness and your mushrooms are done, remove everything from the grill.
10. Loosely foil the steaks and allow them to rest for 5 minutes.
11. Once you have the steaks plated plate place 1 TBSP of the garlic butter on each. Divide the mushrooms between the plates.
