Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Season the Steak

    Generously season the 1.5-pound rib-eye steak with salt and black pepper on both sides. Allow it to sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to enhance flavor.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Pan

    Heat a large cast-iron skillet or grill pan over high heat. Add the olive oil and let it heat until it shimmers.

  3. 3

    Sear the Steak

    Place the seasoned steak in the hot pan. Sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is reached. Use tongs to flip the steak only once.

  4. 4

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steak from the pan and let it rest on a cutting board for at least 10 minutes before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute.
