Savor the rich flavors of a perfectly pan seared beef sirloin steak dressed in a fragrant blend of fresh rosemary, thyme, and parsley, accentuated by the caramelized sweetness of roasted garlic.

INGREDIENTS
5 oz Beef Sirloin Steak
1 clove Fresh Garlic
0.5 tbsp Fresh Rosemary
0.5 tbsp Fresh Thyme
0.5 tbsp Fresh Parsley
1 tsp Olive Oil (for searing)
1/2 cup Asparagus (halved)
1 cup Baby Spinach
1 tsp Olive Oil (for salad dressing)
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Preheat a pan over medium-high heat and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
Pat the steak dry and season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, combine the chopped fresh rosemary, thyme, and parsley with minced roasted garlic (or garlic lightly crushed and roasted in the pan until golden) to create the herb crust.
Press the herb mixture evenly onto both sides of the steak.
Place the steak onto the hot pan and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting the time based on desired doneness.
While the steak is cooking, steam or lightly sauté the asparagus until tender-crisp.
In a separate bowl, toss the baby spinach with 1 teaspoon olive oil and a drizzle of lemon juice, and season lightly with salt.
Once the steak is done, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing against the grain.
Plate the steak with the roasted asparagus on the side and serve the fresh spinach salad alongside for a balanced meal.
