Step By Step

Instructions

For the dressing:

1
In a small, unheated skillet, combine the olive oil, scallions, and minced garlic. Turn the heat to low and cook, stirring, until the mixture begins to sizzle. Sizzle for 1 minute, then transfer to a small bowl to cool.
2
In a blender or small food processor, combine the parsley, tarragon, dill, lemon zest and juice, anchovies, yogurt, and mayonnaise; pulse to combine. Add the garlic mixture and process until blended and smooth. Taste and season with salt and pepper. (Yield: ¾ cup. You can make the dressing up to 2 days ahead; keep covered and refrigerated. Stir before using.)

For the steak:

1
Heat a large heavy or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add the avocado oil; swirl to coat the bottom of the skillet. Season the steaks generously with salt and lightly with pepper; place in the skillet. Cook until seared on one side, 2 to 3 minutes, then flip. Add the garlic clove and butter. When butter melts, tilt the pan and use a spoon to baste the steak with the butter.
2
Continue to cook, basting and turning the steak a few more times, until the internal temperature reaches 130ºF (for medium/medium-rare), 2 to 4 minutes longer, depending on thickness. Transfer to a cutting board, tent with foil to keep warm, and rest the steak for 5 to 10 minutes.

For the salad:

1
In a large bowl, combine the lettuce, cucumber, and radishes. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Add 2 tablespoons of the dressing; toss. (Add more dressing 1 tablespoon at a time until it’s dressed as you like it.) Divide the salad among 4 shallow bowls. Sprinkle with the avocado.
2
Slice the steak against the grain and divide it among the bowls. Sprinkle the steak with flaky sea salt, if desired, and serve.
