Garlic Herb Tomahawk Steak with Roasted Vegetables

A tomahawk steak always feels a little dramatic in the best way. It’s bold, impressive, and perfect for those nights when dinner should feel like an occasion. As it sears, the garlic, rosemary, thyme, and butter fill the kitchen with that rich steakhouse aroma that makes everyone wander in asking, “Is it ready yet?”

This recipe is hearty and flavorful, but still simple enough to enjoy at home. The steak is juicy and buttery, the vegetables are colorful and tender-crisp, and the whole-grain mustard adds a bright little kick on the side.

Ingredients

• 1 large tomahawk steak
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary
• 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon coarse salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup broccoli florets
• 1 cup bell peppers, chopped
• 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
• 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes
• 2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard, for serving

Instructions

Start by patting the steak dry with paper towels. This helps it sear instead of steam.

Rub the steak with olive oil, then season it generously with coarse salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme. Press the seasoning in gently so it clings to the meat.

Heat a heavy skillet or grill over high heat. When it’s very hot, sear the steak for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until a deep, golden-brown crust forms.

Lower the heat to medium. Add the butter to the pan and let it melt and foam. Spoon the buttery garlic-herb mixture over the steak for 5 to 8 minutes, or until it reaches your preferred doneness.

Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 10 minutes. This keeps the juices inside where they belong.

While the steak rests, add the broccoli, bell peppers, mushrooms, and cherry tomatoes to the same pan. Sauté for 5 to 7 minutes, until the vegetables are tender-crisp and lightly coated in all those savory pan flavors.

Slice the steak against the grain and serve it with the vegetables and whole-grain mustard on the side.

Presentation

Serve the tomahawk steak on a large wooden board for a rustic, steakhouse-style look. Arrange the colorful vegetables around the steak, letting the cherry tomatoes and peppers add brightness to the plate.

Add a small bowl of whole-grain mustard on the side, and finish with a sprinkle of fresh rosemary or flaky salt if you like.
