Ingredients: (Serves 2) For the Steak:

You can use any Tomahawk Steak, but for this recipe we recommend: USDA Black Angus, Wagyu, Swami or Irish Angus Tomahawk.
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp coarse sea salt
1 tbsp freshly cracked black pepper
For the Garlic-Thyme Butter Sauce:
3 tbsp unsalted butter
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 sprigs fresh thyme
1 sprig fresh rosemary (optional)
Scaling Up the Recipe
Hosting more guests? Simply adjust the ingredients:
For 3-4 people, use two 1-1.2kg Tomahawks and increase the sauce ingredients by 50%.
For 5-6 people, use three 1-1.2 kg Tomahawks and double the seasoning and sauce ingredients.
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Steak
Bring to Room Temperature: Remove the Tomahawk from the fridge at least 1 hour before cooking to ensure even cooking throughout.
Season Generously: Pat the steak dry with paper towels. Rub olive oil all over, then season liberally with salt and pepper on both sides.
2. Sear the Steak
Heat the Skillet: Preheat a large cast-iron skillet over high heat until smoking hot.
Sear the Steak: Place the Tomahawk in the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes per side until a deep golden-brown crust forms. Use tongs to hold the steak upright to sear the edges.
3. Finish in the Oven
Preheat the Oven: While searing, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Transfer to the Oven: Place the skillet with the Tomahawk into the oven. Roast for 15-20 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches:
120°F (49°C) for rare.
130°F (54°C) for medium-rare.
Use a meat thermometer for accuracy.
4. Make the Garlic-Thyme Butter Sauce
Prepare the Sauce: While the steak is in the oven, melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and thyme, sautéing for 2-3 minutes until fragrant. For extra flavor, add a sprig of rosemary.
Keep Warm: Reduce heat to low and keep the sauce warm until ready to serve.
5. Rest, Slice, and Serve
Rest the Steak: Remove the Tomahawk from the oven and transfer it to a cutting board. Tent loosely with foil and let it rest for 10-15 minutes.
Carve the Steak: Slice the steak against the grain into thick, juicy cuts. Drizzle with the garlic-thyme butter sauce and serve with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables or creamy mashed potatoes.
