1
Prepare the steak
Remove the center-cut prime strip steaks from the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature for about 30-60 minutes. This ensures even cooking.
2
Season the steak
Pat the steaks dry with paper towels. Generously season both sides of the steaks with kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper, and garlic powder.

3
Preheat the grill or skillet
Preheat your grill to high heat (about 450-500°F) or heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until it is very hot.
4
Add olive oil
If using a skillet, add the olive oil and allow it to heat until shimmering.
5
Cook the steak
Place the steaks on the grill or in the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes on the first side without moving them to achieve a good sear.
6
Flip the steak
Turn the steaks using tongs and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes for medium-rare. Adjust the time based on your desired doneness.
7
Optional: Baste with butter and rosemary
If desired, during the last minute of cooking, add butter and fresh rosemary to the skillet. Baste the steaks with the melted butter for added flavor.

8
Rest the steak
Remove the steaks from the grill or skillet and let them rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring a juicy steak.
