Description:
This is the only way I cook steaks now. Learned this recipe from Alton Brown’s show Good Eats on the Food Network. 📺
Ingredients:
- 1 Rib Eye Steak (10 to 12 ounces)
- Canola Oil
- Kosher Salt
- Ground Black Pepper
Instructions:
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Preheat the Oven: Place a 10 to 12-inch cast iron skillet in the oven and preheat it to 500 degrees Fahrenheit (260 degrees Celsius). 🌡️ |
| 2 | Bring Steak to Room Temperature: Take the rib eye steak out of the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature. This helps in even cooking. 🥩 |
| 3 | Heat the Skillet: Once the oven reaches the desired temperature, remove the skillet and place it on the stovetop over high heat. 🔥 |
| 4 | Prepare the Steak: Lightly coat the rib eye steak with canola oil. Season both sides generously with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. 🧂 |
| 5 | Sear the Steak: Immediately place the seasoned steak in the hot, dry skillet. Let it cook without moving for 30 seconds. This helps in creating a nice crust. 🍳 |
| 6 | Flip and Sear Again: Using tongs, flip the steak and cook for another 30 seconds. After this, put the entire skillet with the steak into the preheated oven. 🍴 |
| 7 | Oven Cooking: Cook the steak in the oven for 2 minutes. This timing is for a medium-rare steak. If you prefer it medium, add another minute to each side. 🕒 |
| 8 | Flip and Cook Again: After 2 minutes, flip the steak once more and cook for an additional 2 minutes in the oven. This ensures even cooking. 🕒 |
| 9 | Rest the Steak: Once the steak is cooked to your desired doneness, remove it from the skillet. Cover it loosely with foil and let it rest for 2 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute and ensures a juicy steak. 🍽️ |
| 10 | Serve: Slice the rib eye steak thinly against the grain and fan it onto a plate. Enjoy your perfectly cooked, flavorful steak! 🍴🥩 |
Notes:
- Meat Perfection: This method yields a beautifully seared crust on the outside while keeping the inside tender and juicy.
- Customize Doneness: Adjust the oven cooking time based on your preference for doneness. More time for medium, less for medium-rare.
- Resting is Key: Remember to let the steak rest before slicing. This step is crucial for a perfectly cooked, flavorful result. 🕰️
