Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the sliced leeks and cook until they are soft and slightly caramelized, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooked leeks, thyme leaves, breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Season the Tomahawk steak generously with salt and pepper on both sides. Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of olive oil. Once the oil is shimmering, sear the steak for about 3-4 minutes on each side until a nice crust forms.
- Remove the skillet from the heat and carefully press the leek-breadcrumb mixture onto the top of the steak, ensuring it adheres well.
- Transfer the steak to the preheated oven and roast for 15-20 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches your desired doneness (135°F for medium-rare).
- While the steak is roasting, prepare the brown butter and Madeira-shallot infusion. In a small saucepan, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-low heat. Add the chopped shallots and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Pour in the Madeira wine and allow it to simmer for 3-4 minutes until slightly reduced. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Once the steak is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes.
- Slice the Tomahawk steak and serve drizzled with the brown butter and Madeira-shallot infusion.
Notes
For an extra layer of flavor, you can marinate the Tomahawk steak overnight with herbs and garlic.
