1
Preparation
Remove the beef strip steak from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This helps in achieving a more even cook.
2
Seasoning
Pat the steak dry with paper towels. Rub both sides with olive oil, then season generously with salt and black pepper. If using garlic and rosemary, add them on top for extra flavor.
3
Cooking
Preheat a grill or skillet over high heat. Once hot, place the steak on the grill or skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes on one side for medium-rare, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until desired doneness is achieved.
4
Resting
Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.
5
Serving
Slice the steak against the grain and serve immediately. Enjoy your perfectly cooked beef strip steak!
