Serves 2
For steaks
2 New York strip steaks
Olive oil
Kosher salt, to taste
Black ground pepper, to taste
For mushrooms
4 ounces olive oil
1 pound mushrooms (cremini, shiitake, button or oyster), sliced or hand torn
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves, minced
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, minced
1 tablespoon garlic, crushed
Kosher salt, to taste
Black ground pepper, to taste
Preparation
Allow steaks to rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
Heat grill to medium-high or high heat.
Lightly coat both sides of the steaks with olive oil and season to taste with kosher salt and pepper.
Grill steaks over direct medium-high heat until desired temperature. For medium-rare, grill for 4½ minutes per side. Remove steaks from grill and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
While steaks are resting, combine olive oil, mushrooms and herbs in a mixing bowl and season to taste with kosher salt and pepper. Transfer mushrooms to a grill basket and place basket on the grill. Cook for 5–10 minutes, occasionally moving mushrooms around until they begin to brown.
Spoon grilled mushrooms over steaks and serve warm.
