Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F. Allow steak to reach room temperature; season generously with salt, pepper, and mushroom powder if using.
Slice the sourdough baguette into ½ inch pieces and place on a baking sheet. Toast in the oven for about 6-8 minutes until golden brown.
Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat with neutral oil until hot. Sear the seasoned steak for about 2 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Transfer to the oven for an additional 1-2 minutes based on preference. Let rest for 15 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.
Rub toasted bread with garlic cloves and top each slice with burrata and steak slices. Garnish with chives, flaky salt, pepper, and balsamic vinegar if desired. Serve immediately.
