Ingredients

2 sirloin steaks (about 8 oz / 225 g each)
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tbsp (30 ml) olive oil
4 tbsp (60 g) unsalted butter, softened
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
1 tbsp chopped fresh thyme
1 tsp lemon juice

Instructions

1. **Prepare the Steaks**: Season the sirloin steaks generously with salt and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil and rub it into the meat.
2. **Preheat the Grill**: Heat your grill to medium-high heat. While the grill is heating, combine the butter, minced garlic, parsley, thyme, and lemon juice in a small bowl. Mix well.
3. **Grill the Steaks**: Place the steaks on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired doneness.
4. **Rest and Butter Your Steak**: Remove the steaks from the grill and allow them to rest for about 5 minutes. After resting, top each steak with a generous scoop of the garlic herb butter, allowing it to melt over the warm steak.
5. **Serve**: Slice the steaks against the grain and serve immediately alongside your choice of sides, such as mashed potatoes or a fresh green salad.
