Due to demand, here’s the 6 step by step guide to make my @alphamegacy perfect steak
Ingredients needed
▢ Any cut of steak - I used Australian Beef Tenderloin
▢ Large grain sea salt
▢ Ground pepper
▢ Extra Virgin Olive oil
▢ Fresh garlic
▢ Fresh thyme
▢ butter
How to Cook the Perfect Steak
➊ Make sure your steaks are completely thawed. Remove them from the fridge and allow them to sit outside fridge for AT LEAST 20 minutes.
➋ Put a pan over medium-high heat. Season thawed steaks with a good amount of large grain salt (sea salt) and ground pepper, rub bottom of steaks with excess salt and pepper that has fallen onto table.
➌ Once pan begins to smoke drop 1-2 Tbsp of olive oil in and coat pan in it. Lay steaks away from you into pan and let sear for one minute on each side. There should be three sides you sear (top, bottom, and fat side). Render the fat throughout all the cooking.
Note: to render fat, tilt pan up and and lean steaks against far edge of pan
➍ Crush some fresh garlic, pinch off some fresh thyme, grab another Tbsp of olive oil and add it to pan around steaks while continuing to turn the steaks until you achieved the desired cook on each side
➎ Add 2 Tbsp of butter to hot pan and baste the steaks by scooping melted butter on top of the cooking steaks.
➏ Continue basting and turning steaks on the minute until steak is at desired tenderness! Brush steaks with garlic. Remove from heat and place on cutting board and let rest 5-10 minutes, serve and enjoy
Optional : After I’ve cut my steak, I personally like to add it to the now cold pan, and cover it on the left over garlic & butter.
Prep Time: 20 minutes

I made a simple mash potato and a chimichurri sauce to serve with.
* Fresh flat-leaf parsley
* Garlic cloves
* Dried oregano
* Red wine vinegar (or white wine vinegar)
* Red chili or Dried chili flakes
* Salt and Black pepper
* Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Add everything except for the extra virgin olive oil to the bowl of a food processor. Process until finely minced
Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl and combine with the olive oil. Gently mix to combine

Its all about city life escaping this summer, and I have for you another new entry for Agia Napa!
@thecourtyard.grillbar is located within the Adults Only @hotelnapasuites and offers a unique grilling experience.
The chefs kitchen is literally located in the courtyard and you can watch them grill your food to your desired cooking preference.
I had the homeless chicken leg to start, which I would advise to get even if your having steak, maybe get ot to share simply because it was so juicy you mustn't not try.
The pictured ribeye was outstanding, juices poured from within, and seasoned with just cracked pepper & salt flakes.
Now another thing you won't find me saying often, is that about grilled vegetables, but these had to be the yummiest veggies I've had in a long time, char-grilled on an iron skillet and ouzing with flavour.
Finished off with a refreshing lemon sorbet ice-cream in a frozen lemon shell, was just what i needed to complete the experience.
@thecourtyard.grillbar welcomes you with or without reservations, but remember its Adults only, so leave the brats at home 🤭

Honey you were wonderful last night.... I meant @honeymodmedrest 😈
Just walking in the the small streets of old town pafos, we came upon Honey restaurant, and thought... Hmmm. Thankfully we managed to get a table without a reservation (not advised)
The food was sooo good, next time I would probably get exactly the same. The Prawns & Scallop in the sauce is a must!! I was sipping the sauce like soup at the end.
Then the steak!!! Perfectly Medium Rare... and full of flavour.
Also had the most fresh mozzarella salad for starters & finished the night with a huge piece of Tiramisu.
Now apart from great food, something I rarely discuss is service. The service here is 💯! From the manager to waiting staff, all with smiles on their faces and constantly checking up on you if you need anything else (but not in an annoying manner)
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ all the way
