Instructions
- Take the Tomahawk steak out of the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for about 1 hour.
- In a small bowl, combine minced garlic, chopped rosemary, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix well to form a paste.
- Rub the garlic and rosemary mixture all over the steak, ensuring it’s evenly coated.
- Preheat your grill to high heat (approximately 450°F to 500°F) or preheat the oven to 400°F.
- If using a grill, place the Tomahawk steak directly on the grill grates. Sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check; it should read 130°F. If using an oven, sear the steak in a hot, oven-safe skillet on the stovetop for 4-5 minutes per side, then transfer the skillet to the oven to finish cooking for about 15-20 minutes, or until the desired doneness is reached.
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, add the chopped shallots and balsamic vinegar. Cook until the shallots are softened and the vinegar reduces, about 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in the honey and fresh thyme, cooking for an additional 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- In a bowl, combine the softened butter with the shallot mixture. Mix well until fully incorporated. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Once cooked to your liking, remove the Tomahawk steak from the heat and let it rest for 10-15 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.
- Slice the steak and serve with generous dollops of the balsamic-glazed shallot compound butter on top. Enjoy!
Notes
For added flavor, let the compound butter sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
