Description
Surf And Turf is a luxurious culinary experience that combines succulent steak and fresh seafood for an impressive and satisfying meal.
Ingredients
Scale
Steak
- 2 Ribeye or Filet Mignon steaks
Seafood
- 2 Lobster tails or 12 large shrimp or 8 scallops
Seasoning
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
Flavor Enhancers
- 3 cloves of fresh garlic, minced
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- Fresh herbs like parsley or thyme, for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare Your Ingredients: Gather all your ingredients and ensure they are fresh. This will set the foundation for a delicious meal.
- Season the Steak: Generously season your steak with salt and pepper, allowing it to rest at room temperature while you prepare the seafood.
- Cook the Steak: Heat a skillet over high heat and add a little oil. Sear the steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium rare, adjusting the time based on your desired doneness.
- Prepare the Seafood: In the same skillet, reduce the heat and add butter and minced garlic. Once melted, add your seafood and cook until just opaque, about 3-4 minutes.
- Plate Your Dish: Slice the steak and arrange it alongside the seafood on a plate. Drizzle with any remaining pan juices for added flavor.
Notes
- Let It Rest: Allow your steak to rest for a few minutes after cooking to retain its juices.
- Quality Matters: Invest in high-quality ingredients for the best flavor and texture.
- Don’t Overcook: Keep an eye on your seafood to avoid rubbery texture; it cooks quickly.
- Experiment with Sauces: A rich béarnaise or a zesty chimichurri can elevate your dish.
- Use a Meat Thermometer: This ensures perfectly cooked steak every time, which is critical for achieving your desired doneness.
