If you don't have a grill and a backyard, it doesn't mean that you cannot enjoy a real steak at home. Follow these simple instructions and you'll have a perfect steak every time. It will save you money and frustration of ordering steak at restaurants. I used to love to go out for steak, but it cost a lot. Now I never order steak out because I know that my home version is so much better.
recipe for success
Steaks (filet mignon, rib eye, etc) - minumum 1 and a half inch thick
Favourite spices - I use Montreal Steak Seasoning
Olive oil
Butter (optional)
Cast iron skillet
- Liberally oil the steaks and season them with your favourite spices. Let them stand at room temperature for about 30-45 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 425F (220C)
- Heat the cast iron skillet on high for 1.5-2 minutes until it's smoking hot.
- Pan fry the steaks for about 1.5-2 minutes without touching them. It might smoke a lot, so open the windows to let the smoke out. Since the steaks are already oiled, you do not need to add any extra oil into the skillet.
