Ingredients
  

Horseradish Aioli

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp horseradish
  • 1 tsp dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 clove of garlic minced
  • kosher salt
  • freshly ground pepper

Oyster Steaks

  • 2 oyster steaks
  • kosher salt
  • freshly cracked pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil or high-heat oil
  • 1 tbsp butter

Instructions
 

  • Set the steaks out at room temperature for 1 hour before cooking.

Make the Horseradish Aioli

  • In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, horseradish, dijon mustard, lemon juice, and garlic. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Cook the Oyster Steaks

  • Preheat the cast iron pan to medium-high heat.
  • Pat the steaks dry with a paper towel and season the steaks on both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Add the olive oil and butter. Once melted and the pan is hot (test it by flicking water onto the pan and watch that it sizzles), sear the steaks for 3-4 minutes per side, or until nicely browned and your desired doneness is reached. Use a thermometer to check the temperature. Spoon the butter over the steaks as they cook.
  • Transfer the steaks to a plate and loosely tent with foil to rest for 10 minutes before serving.
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper.
