Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Steak

Take the top sirloin steak (Picanha) out of the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This ensures even cooking.

2

Seasoning

Rub the steak with olive oil, then generously season both sides with kosher salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. If desired, place fresh rosemary sprigs on top.

3

Preheat the Grill or Pan

Preheat your grill to high heat or a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until it’s hot.

4

Cook the Steak

Place the seasoned steak on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness.

5

Rest the Steak

Once cooked, remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for about 10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.

6

Serve

Slice the steak against the grain and serve with your favorite sides.
