Instructions

• In a small saucepan over low heat on the stove, combine the garlic and red pepper flakes with ½ cup oil, making sure you have enough oil to cover the garlic cloves. Cook at a low simmer until the garlic starts to turn golden brown, about 20 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and allow the garlic to cool in the oil. The garlic will continue to soften and become deep golden brown until the oil cools completely.
• Pour ¼ cup of the garlic oil onto a sheet pan. Dredge the steaks through the oil, coating both sides. Season evenly with salt and pepper. Allow the steaks to stand at room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes before grilling.
• Prepare the grill for direct cooking over high heat (450° to 550°F). If you're using a charcoal grill, keep a small part of the charcoal grate clear of briquettes as a safety zone of indirect heat.
