000
Ingredients
2 (8-ounce) steaks
Salt, to taste
Pepper, to taste
Directions

STEP 1: SEASON

Heat oven to 350 F. Meanwhile, heat 12-inch cast iron skillet over medium heat until hot. Pat steaks dry and season heavily with salt and pepper; place steaks in HOT skillet.

 

STEP 2: SEAR

Sear steaks 4 minutes, turning once. Do not turn until the steak releases from the skillet on its own. If the steak is sticking to the skillet it is not ready to turn.

 

STEP 3: COOK

Place skillet into 350 F oven for 10-15 minutes, depending on desired doneness. Turn once, halfway through the cooking time.

 

STEP 4: CHECK TEMP

Remove from oven when internal temperature reaches 120 F for rare, 130 F for medium rare, and 140 F for medium doneness. Always use a thermometer to determine doneness.

 

STEP 5: TENT

Remove steaks from skillet; tent loosely with aluminum foil. Let stand 5 to 10 minutes before serving. (Temperature will continue to rise about 5°)
