Ingredients
- 2 One-inch (2.5 cm) thick Strip Steaks (New York Strip)
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3–4 tablespoons of high-smoke point oil (I recommend avocado oil)
- 8 ounces mushrooms
- 1/4 stick of unsalted butter (About 28 grams)
- 2–3 garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
Instructions
- Prepare the Steak: Pat the steak dry with a paper towel, salt both sides generously, and let it rest on a rack in the fridge for 4 to 12 hours. Remove the steak from the fridge at least 30 minutes before cooking and move on to the next step.
- Prepare and Sauté the Mushrooms: Slice the mushrooms into thick pieces. Preheat a small cast iron skillet over medium-high for about 2 minutes. Then add 2-3 tablespoons of avocado oil and let it heat up for another minute.
- Cook the Steak: Preheat skillet over medium-high heat for 2 minutes, then add 1 tbsp avocado oil and wait another minute. Pat the steak dry, place it in the skillet, and cook, flipping every 30 seconds until it’s 20°F (11°C) below the target temperature. Once the steak is 20°F (11°C) below the target temperature, remove it from the pan and let it rest for 5 minutes.
- Slice Cooked Steak into Bite-sized Pieces: Once the steak has rested, trim off any fat if you prefer. Slice the steak into long strips, then cut those strips perpendicularly into 0.5-inch (1.2 cm) bite-sized pieces. Try to keep all the pieces roughly the same size.
- Prepare the Garlic and Butter: Remove 1/4 stick of unsalted butter (approximately 28 grams) from the refrigerator. Next, peel 2-3 cloves of garlic and crush them with a garlic press or slice them thinly with a knife. Once done, set the garlic and butter aside for the next step.
- Finish and Serve the Hibachi Steak: Place the cast iron pan on low heat and add the sliced steak, mushrooms, garlic, butter, and soy sauce. Stir until the butter melts. Serve the hibachi steak with your favorite sauce and side dishes.
