How to Cook Steak at Home

Step 1:

Let the steak rest until it comes to room temperature for about 30 to 45 minutes.

Pat dry it with a paper towel. Season both sides with salt and black pepper. Rub it into the meat. Wipe your area clean.

Step 3:

Place a cast iron skillet over high heat and add oil.

Step 4:

Crush the garlic cloves with your knife then peel.

Step 5:

Once the oil is hot, add the seasoned steak and cook for 6 minutes, turning it over every 1.5 minutes.

Step 6:

For the remaining 2 minutes, add butter, garlic, and rosemary. Baste the steak with the melted butter. Sear the fat by holding it on the side.

Step 7:

Once done cooking, transfer to your chopping board and let it rest for about 5 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper. Slice and serve. Enjoy!
