A perfectly seared sirloin is one of those meals that feels like a serious achievement, and this version delivers a deep, smoky crust with minimal fuss. The spice rub — smoked paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper — builds bold flavor before the steak ever hits the grill, and garlic-infused oil ties everything together with a rich, savory backbone. High heat and a hands-off approach are the real secrets here: letting the steak cook undisturbed means you get that gorgeous brown crust instead of a steamed, grey disappointment. A proper five-minute rest after grilling keeps every slice juicy, and a drizzle of the remaining garlic oil right before serving pushes it over the top. Fresh parsley and a squeeze of lemon brighten the whole plate without competing with the beef. Every single ingredient here is naturally free from tree nuts, so there's no label-scanning or substitution stress — just clean, straightforward cooking with pantry staples you likely already have on hand.

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.
