Ingredients

• ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
• 2 (10 ounce) porterhouse steaks
• kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste
• ½ cup olive oil, divided
• 1 medium lemon, cut into quarters

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Season steaks with salt and pepper.

Step 2

Cook steaks on the preheated grill until they are beginning to firm and are hot and slightly pink in the center, about 12 to 14 minutes, flipping halfway. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium.

Step 3

While the steaks are cooking, place garlic in a microwave-safe bowl. Sprinkle some salt over top and pour in 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Mash garlic with the back of a sturdy knife into a fine paste. Stir in remaining oil and red pepper flakes. Heat in the microwave until hot, about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes, mixing every 30 seconds.

Step 4

Remove steaks from the oven and let sit covered for 4 to 5 minutes. Drizzle 2 tablespoons oil mixture over each steak and squeeze lemon wedges over top.
