Two for one: Spooning spiced butter over steak flavors the meat while building a nuanced sauce.

Ingredients

Serves 4

2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for drizzling
Kosher salt
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 sprigs thyme
2 garlic cloves, crushed

    Step 5

    Swipe plates with seasoned yogurt and top with steak and radishes. Drizzle with pan drippings and sprinkle with red pepper flakes and sea salt.

  • I was skeptical of this recipe but made it exactly per the instructions and was pleasantly surprised. The radish salad works better than you think it will. It's a little too much yogurt but we just didn't eat quite all of it. If you aren't cutting carbs it could use a starch like brown rice or red potatoes but we enjoyed it on its own.

  • To make this Paleo, I will substitute a lemony hummus for the yogurt.

  • Great recipe! The only modifications we made were sous vide-ing the steak and replacing the cardamom with a spice mix. Was easy, quick and healthy. Will definitely make again.

  • this is a lot of yogurt to "swipe" the plates with. The radishes are great in taste and have the healthful benefit of cutting cholesteral.
