A perfectly seared sirloin is one of those meals that feels like a treat every single time, and this version delivers a deep, smoky crust with minimal fuss. The spice rub — smoked paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper — builds serious flavor before the steak even hits the grill, and the garlic-infused oil ties everything together with a rich, savory backbone. For anyone navigating a legume-free lifestyle, this recipe is naturally in your corner: every single ingredient is clean and straightforward, with no hidden soy, no peanut oil, and no bean-based fillers that can sneak into marinades and spice blends. The technique is just as important as the ingredients here — patting the steaks dry and letting the grill get screaming hot are the two moves that guarantee that gorgeous, restaurant-quality crust. Resting the meat for five minutes before serving isn't optional; it's what keeps every bite juicy instead of dry. A squeeze of lemon and a scatter of fresh parsley at the end brighten the whole plate without complicating it. This is the kind of weeknight dinner that feels like a weekend splurge.

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.
