What is the first thing that comes to mind when you see this steak?

Bring meat to room temperature

Take beef out of fridge 30–45 minutes before cooking
 This keeps it juicy.

 Season well

Rub meat with:

Oil

Salt

Pepper

Garlic

Paprika

Herbs

Press seasoning into the meat.

 Hard sear (this makes the crust)

Heat pan very hot

Add a little oil

Sear each side 2–3 minutes until dark brown
Don’t move it too much

 Finish cooking (key step)

Two options:

 Oven (best)

Oven at 170°C

Put beef in oven 25–35 minutes

Internal temp ≈ 70–75°C (well done but juicy)

Pan + lid

Lower heat

Cover pan

Cook slowly 20–30 minutes, turning once

 REST THE MEAT (DO NOT SKIP)

Remove from heat

Cover loosely with foil

Rest 10–15 minutes

 This keeps it juicy like the picture.

 Slice correctly

Slice against the grain

Medium thickness (not too thin
