Ingredients

• 2 pieces beefsteak (thick-cut, about 1-inch thick)
• 2 lemons
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped
• 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 tablespoon parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Pat the beefsteaks dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and black pepper.

Step 3

Zest one lemon and juice it, setting both the zest and juice aside. Slice the second lemon into thin rounds.

Step 4

In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, and the lemon zest. Mix well to create a marinade.

Step 5

Rub the marinade evenly over both sides of the beefsteaks.

Step 6

Heat a large, ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat and melt the butter. Once the butter begins to sizzle, sear the beefsteaks for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Remove the skillet from heat.

Step 7

Drizzle the lemon juice over the beefsteaks, and arrange the lemon slices on top of and around the steaks in the skillet.

Step 8

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-18 minutes for medium-rare, or longer as desired for your preferred doneness.

Step 9

Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and let the steaks rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm. Enjoy your Lemon Baked Beefsteak with your favorite side dishes!
