Instructions
 

Steak Butter

  • In a medium bowl, mix the softened butter, minced garlic, 2 tbsp minced thyme, 1 tsp lemon zest and 1 tsp lemon juice. Mix well and place on a piece of wax or parchment paper. Roll into a log and twist the ends to seal. Place it in the refrigerator until firm.

Main Course

  • Place 2 tbsp of butter in a large cast iron skillet on medium heat, add the asparagus and season with Mrs. Dash's Table Blend and saute for 3-5 minutes, just until they begin to wilt. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  • Add 2 tbsp of butter to that same skillet and turn up to medium high heat. Add the scallops and season with Cookies Flavor Enhancer. Sear each side for about 2 minutes, until golden brown around the edges. Turn down the heat and continue to cook for 2-3 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside with the asparagus.
  • Season the steaks with Cookies Flavor Enhancer and grill for 3-7 minutes per side until desired doneness. Remove from heat and allow to rest. While the steaks are cooking, saute the shrimp and prepare for plating.
  • Add the last 2 tbsp of butter to that same skillet and add the shrimp. Season with the Cookies Flavor Enhancer and cook 2-3 minutes per side. Add the scallops and the asparagus to the skillet until ready to plate. Sprinkle with remaining lemon juice or zest if desired.
  • Cut the New York Strips in half. Place a piece of the New York Strip on each plate, add a serving of shrimp, scallops and asparagus on each plate as well. Place a generous slice of the Steak Butter on each piece of steak and serve.
