Ingredients:
Beef steak (your choice, such as ribeye or new cowboy)
Salt and pepper to taste
Various herbs and spices (rosemary, thyme, garlic)
Heated vegetable oil or butter
Instructions:
Choose a quality steak:
Choose a medium-thick marbled steak. This will help achieve the optimal combination of softness and taste.
Let the steak come to room temperature:
Remove the steak from the refrigerator 30 to 60 minutes before cooking. This will help heat the meat evenly.
Prepare the marinade:
Mix salt, pepper and other herbs in a bowl. You can add finely chopped garlic for extra flavor.
Rub the steak with marinade:
Sprinkle the prepared marinade generously over the steak to add flavor. Distribute the marinade evenly, gently massaging the meat.
Preheat the pan:
Heat a frying pan over medium heat. If you prefer to grill, prepare your grill.
Grill the steak:
Sear the steak in a hot pan or grill on one side for 4-5 minutes to get a nice crust. Turn the steak and cook for another 4 to 5 minutes for medium rare. Increase or decrease time depending on desired doneness.
Rest the steak:
After cooking, let the steak rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the juices to distribute evenly throughout the meat. Covering the steak with foil will help keep it warm.
Serve warm:
Serve steak with your favorite side dishes, sauces or vegetables of your choice.
