Ingredients
 

  • 1 tbsp light soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp chili garlic sauce
  • 3 tbsp shiro miso (aka white miso)
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 2 garlic cloves trimmed, minced
  • 2 tsp fresh ginger peeled, grated
  • 1 lb rib eye steak patted dry
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter

Instructions
 

  • Prep | Season both sides of the steak with salt. Dry brine on a wire rack in the fridge for 1 hour minimum or overnight.
  • Marinade and Sauce | Add soy sauce, sesame oil, chili garlic sauce, miso, sugar, ginger, garlic, and rice vinegar into a bowl. Mix until evenly distributed.
  • Cook | Place a pan on the stove at medium-high heat. Once the pan starts to smoke add oil. Add the steak with the fat cap down. Flip until a nice crust starts to form approximately every 30-60 seconds.
    Pull when the steak reaches an internal temp of 115°F for medium rare. Transfer on a cutting board, add a scoop of compound butter, and let it rest for 10 minutes.
  • Assemble | Cut steak against the grain and top with flakey salt and the miso sauce. Serve hot with steamed jasmine rice.
