Wagyu Beef Preparation

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Take the Wagyu beef steak out of the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This ensures even cooking.

  2. 2

    Season the Steak

    Generously season both sides of the steak with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.

  3. 3

    Heat the Pan

    In a large cast-iron skillet or frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.

  4. 4

    Sear the Steak

    Add the seasoned Wagyu beef to the pan and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until a nice crust forms. Use tongs to flip the steak.

  5. 5

    Add Flavor

    In the last minute of cooking, add the butter and rosemary to the pan. Spoon the melted butter over the steak for extra flavor.

  6. 6

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steak from the pan and let it rest on a cutting board for about 5-10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Slice against the grain and serve as desired, either with sides or on its own.
