Quick & Gourmet: 3 Steak Recipes Ready in 30 Minutes or Less

Restaurant-quality steak at home doesn't need hours in the kitchen — it needs a great cut and a hot pan. With premium beef from Mmmm! delivered to your door, these three recipes are on the table in 30 minutes or less.

Before you start: three steak rules

• Temper: take steaks out of the fridge 20–30 minutes before cooking.
• Dry and season: pat the surface dry and salt generously for a better crust.
• Rest: let the steak rest for 5 minutes before slicing so the juices stay inside.

1. Pan-seared steak with garlic butter

Serves 2 · 20 minutes

Ingredients

• 2 steaks — grass-fed ribeye or wagyu striploin
• 2 cloves garlic, peeled and lightly crushed
• 1 sprig fresh rosemary or thyme
• ½ tbsp vegetable oil
• Freshly ground black pepper and sea salt
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter

Method

1. Pat the steaks dry and season well with salt and pepper.
2. Heat the oil in a heavy pan until it just starts to smoke. Sear the steaks for 2–4 minutes per side, depending on thickness and doneness.
3. Lower the heat, add the butter, garlic and herbs, and spoon the foaming butter over the steaks for 1 minute.
4. Rest for 5 minutes, then slice against the grain.

2. Rump steak with mushroom sauce

Serves 2 · 25 minutes

Ingredients

• 2 rump steaks — grass-fed rump cap, grain-fed rump cap or wagyu rump
• 1 yellow onion, finely diced
• 200g button mushrooms, sliced
• A handful of rocket and chopped parsley
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• ⅓ cup sour cream
• Salt and pepper

Method

1. Season and sear the steaks to your liking; rest them on a warm plate.
2. In the same pan, sauté the onion until soft, then add the mushrooms and cook until golden.
3. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce and sour cream, and simmer for 1–2 minutes. Season to taste.
4. Slice the steaks, spoon over the sauce and finish with parsley and rocket.

3. Honey-soy steak

Serves 4 · 30 minutes including marinating

Ingredients

• 4 steaks of 150–200g each — grain-fed chuck eye roll or hanging tender
• 2 tbsp grated ginger
• 2 cloves garlic, grated
• 1 tsp sesame oil
• ¼ cup soy sauce
• 2 tbsp honey
• Toasted sesame seeds (optional)

Method

1. Mix the ginger, garlic, sesame oil, soy and honey. Marinate the steaks for at least 15 minutes.
2. Cook over medium-high heat for 3–4 minutes per side until nicely caramelised (the honey can burn, so watch the heat).
3. Rest, slice and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
