Ingredients
- 1 lb Bavette steak
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
- 3 minced garlic cloves

- 1 cup heavy cream
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Let the steak sit at room temperature for 20 minutes before cooking. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Heat olive oil in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steak for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown (aim for medium-rare at an internal temperature of 130°F).
- Remove the steak and let it rest for 5-10 minutes.
- In the same skillet, melt butter and sauté minced garlic until fragrant.
- Pour in barley tea and scrape any browned bits. Simmer for 2-3 minutes.
- Stir in heavy cream and simmer until slightly thickened (about 5 minutes). Adjust seasoning as needed.
- Slice the rested steak against the grain and drizzle with sauce before serving.
