Notes
- For thick steaks or steaks not at room temperature, sear each side and finish cooking in the oven at 350 degrees F (177 degrees C).
- Cook steak in a skillet on medium heat. Direct exposure to high heat for more than a couple of minutes will result in chewy meat.
- Garnish with chopped fresh parsley or an herb sauce, such as chimichurri, for added flavor.
- To make the steak more flavorful, add a tablespoon of butter and minced garlic to the skillet at the end of cooking.
- Bone-in steaks require longer cooking times. Use a meat thermometer to gauge desired doneness.
