How To Cook The Perfect Steak
A perfect steak is a thick, high-quality cut of beef that has been cooked to the desired level of doneness and seasoned with just the right amount of seasoning. It should be juicy and tender, with a nice crust on the outside from being properly seared.
Ingredients
- 2 beef ribeye steak at least 1-inch thick
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp ground black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 2 tbsp olive oil extra virgin
- 2 tbsp butter
Instructions
- Take the steaks out of the refrigerator and remove any packaging. Let them sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
- Coat each side of the steaks with olive oil. In a small bowl, combine salt, pepper, garlic and onion powder to make a rub mixture. Rub both sides of each steak with the mixture.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- Heat a heavy, oven-safe skillet over high heat until it becomes smoking hot. Sear the steaks in the hot pan for 2-3 minutes per side.
- After searing, transfer the skillet with the seared steaks into the preheated oven to finish cooking. Remove the steaks from the oven when they reach an internal temperature of 130 degrees F for medium rare perfection or when they are cooked on your desired level of doneness.
- Once the steaks are removed from the oven, immediately top them with 1 tablespoon of butter. Allow the steaks to rest for 10 minutes before cutting into them.
