A perfectly seared sirloin is one of those meals that feels like a restaurant splurge but comes together right in your own kitchen. The spice rub here — smoked paprika, dried thyme, kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper — builds a deeply savory crust that locks in every bit of the steak's natural juices. Garlic-infused oil does double duty, helping the seasoning adhere before the cook and adding a fragrant finishing drizzle once the steaks have rested. The high-heat grill method creates that irresistible char without any need for butter-based basting or egg-containing marinades, so the whole dish is naturally clean and simple. A proper five-minute rest on the cutting board is the move that separates a good steak from a great one — don't skip it. Bright lemon wedges and fresh flat-leaf parsley at the end cut through the richness and make the whole plate pop. Whether you're cooking for a weeknight dinner or a backyard gathering, this one delivers serious flavor with minimal fuss.

Pat the steaks dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, stir together the salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and dried thyme. Brush both sides of each steak with 1 tbsp of the garlic-infused oil, then press the spice mixture evenly onto both sides.
Preheat an outdoor grill or grill pan over high heat until very hot, about 5 minutes. The grates should be clean and lightly oiled.
