How To Make Steak In a Cast Iron Skillet Recipe?

1. Prepare the Steaks: Let the steaks sit at room temperature for 30 minutes. Pat them dry and season with salt and pepper.
2. Heat the Skillet: Heat the avocado oil in a cast iron skillet on medium-high until it shimmers.
3. Cook the Steaks: Place the steaks in the skillet and cook for 4 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for 4 more minutes on the other side.
4. Add Butter and Herbs: Turn the heat to medium-low. Add butter, garlic, and rosemary or thyme to the skillet. Spoon the melted butter over the steaks until they reach your desired doneness.
5. Rest the Steaks: Remove the steaks and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve with the butter, garlic, and herbs from the skillet.

Recipe Tips:

• Let steaks sit before cooking: This helps them cook more evenly.
• Don’t move the steaks: Leave them still to get a nice sear.
• Use a thermometer: Check the temperature for perfect doneness: 120°F for rare, 130°F for medium-rare, and 140°F for medium.
• Spoon butter over steaks: Tilt the skillet and spoon butter on top for more flavor.
• Let steaks rest: Resting them for 5 minutes keeps them juicy.

How To Store & Reheat Leftovers?

• Refrigerate: Let the leftover steak cool to room temperature, then put it in an airtight container and store it in the fridge for up to 3 days.
• Freeze: After the steak cools, wrap it in plastic and foil or use a freezer bag. It stays good for up to 2 months.
• Reheat: Heat a skillet on low, add a little butter or oil, and warm the steak for 3-4 minutes, flipping halfway through.
