Ingredients

2 pounds steak, at room temperature

kosher salt

1 clove garlic, green shoot removed, roughly chopped

3 anchovy fillets, soaked in water for 15 minutes

1/8 teaspoon kosher salt

1 teaspoon olive oil

2 tablespoon coarsley chopped flat leaf parsley

1 stick unsalted butter

freshly cracked black pepper

1 tablespoon canola oil

Directions

Sprinkle the steaks generously with kosher salt and set aside for at least 40 minutes for them to come to room temperature and absorb the salt . Combine the garlic, anchovies, salt, and olive oil in a mortar and pestle and mash to a smooth paste . Add the parsley and grind with the pestle until well-combined with the garlic and anchovies. Mix in the butter and a few grinds of black pepper. Pat the steaks very dry with paper towels. Prepare a hot grill and rub oil onto the grates . Cook the steaks for 3-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, depending on thickness. Remove the steaks from the grill or pan and immediately spoon the butter over them. After letting them rest for 5-7 minutes, slice and serve.
