Directions
- Prepare the Steak:
- Season the steaks generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
- If desired, rub minced garlic on the steaks to add flavor.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.
- Add the steaks and cook to your preferred doneness. For medium-rare, it’s about 3-4 minutes per side, but the time will vary depending on the thickness of the steaks and your preference. Use a meat thermometer to check for desired doneness.
- Remove the steaks from the heat and let them rest for a few minutes before slicing.
- Prepare the Seafood:
- In a separate pan, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for a minute until fragrant.
- Add the shrimp and lobster tail or crab legs to the pan.
- Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until the shrimp turn pink and the lobster or crab meat is heated through.
- Sprinkle with chopped parsley and squeeze lemon juice over the seafood.
- Make the Sauce (if desired):
- While the steak and seafood are cooking, you can prepare a sauce. For béarnaise sauce, you can use a pre-made mix or make it from scratch with ingredients like egg yolks, white wine vinegar, and clarified butter. For a red wine reduction sauce, simmer red wine with shallots and broth until it’s reduced and thickened.
- Serve:
- Place the cooked steaks and seafood on a serving plate.
- Pour the sauce over the top if desired.
- Garnish with lemon wedges.
- Serve with your favorite side dishes, such as mashed potatoes, asparagus, or a garden salad.
Remember to adjust the cooking times based on your preferred level of doneness and the thickness of the steaks and seafood. Enjoy your surf and turf!
