Ingredients
Scale
- 1 tri tip steak, room temperature
- salt and pepper
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil
- 4 tablespoons butter, room temperature/softened
- 1 cup fresh basil, roughly chopped
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 pinch red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Preheat your grill on high heat. Sprinkle the steak liberally with salt and pepper on both sides. Spoon the oil over the steak.
- When the grill is hot, add the steak and cook for 6-8 minutes without moving it.
- Meanwhile, made the basil garlic butter. Combine the butter, basil, garlic and red pepper flakes in a small bowl. Mix with a spoon or butter knife. Add in a small pinch of each salt and pepper. Mix everything together. Set a side.
- Flip the steak over and cook for another 6-8 minutes or until the center has reached the temperature you like. Remove from the grill and let sit.
- You can either spread the basil garlic butter over the steak while it rests or wait until after you slice it. I like to slice it and then spread it on so that when it melts it goes down into the sides and crevices of each piece. So good.
Serve right away with grilled vegetables, potatoes, salad, rice or on its own.
