Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 lbs strip steak (2 steaks about 1 1/2 inches thick)
olive oil
sea salt and fresh cracked black pepper
4 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
3 Tbsp butter
1/2 cup red wine (drinking wine, not cooking wine)
fresh rosemary, minced

Steps:

  • Set your steaks out on the counter for 30 minutes before cooking. This allows the internal temperature to come up slowly, and allows the meat to cook more evenly.
  • Rub the steaks on both sides with olive oil, and season with sea salt and pepper, both sides. Preheat your pan over high heat. This will allow you to get that great outdoor grill sear right on the stove top.
  • Add the meat to the hot pan and LEAVE IT in place so it can get fabulous caramelization. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side or until the meat is done to your taste. For a rare steak, cook to 125 degrees F, Medium Rare to 135 degrees F, Medium to 145 degrees F, Medium Well 155 degrees F, Well Done to 160 degrees F.
  • Add the butter and garlic to the pan and baste the meat a few times.
  • Remove the meat to a plate, tent with foil and let rest for 5-10 minutes while you make a quick pan sauce.
  • Slice the steak, against the grain, into thin slices.

GRILLED STEAKS (INDOORS)



Grilled Steaks (Indoors) image

Cold outside? No problem grill indoors with your Grill Pan. Just be sure to let your grill pan get very, very hot before cooking. Yes you can use a regular cast iron pan. Start with high quality steaks, choice grade or better like a center cut, be it a filet, rib eye, or strip steak. With marbling, the white ribbons of fat running through the beef. The fat will turn to liquid during cooking, keeping the meat moist and flavorful. Thick is the best way to get a flavorful crust on the outside of the steaks. A steak less than 1.5" thick will cook through before the outside is seared. The steak is coating with my mix Recipe #206538 Which is easy to make or just use the suggested ingredients below. Your exhaust fan should be on because this method creates a fair amount of smoke as the steak is seared.

THE PERFECT NEW YORK STRIP STEAK



The Perfect New York Strip Steak image

Reverse staging is the definitive way to cook thick steaks for a nice brown crust and a perfectly juicy interior. Slow-cook them in the oven to bring them up to temperature, then quickly sear the outsides by basting with hot butter, a French technique called "arroser."

Provided by Chris Pandel

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 New York strip steaks, 1 lb each, 1½ to 2 inches thick
Salt
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
2 cloves garlic, skin on
1 sprig thyme
1 sprig rosemary

Steps:

  • Roast the steaks at low heat: Preheat oven to 275 degrees F. Season steaks generously with salt on all sides. Place steaks on a wire rack fitted over a rimmed baking sheet; this will ensure even airflow all around the steaks as they cook. Cook for 25-35 minutes, checking after 20 minutes, until internal temperature reaches 125 degrees F. (Note: Once the temperature reaches 80 degrees F, it will climb quickly.) For an accurate temperature, place the thermometer through the side into the center of the steak. When steak reaches 125 degrees F, let rest 10 minutes.
  • Sear the steaks: Heat skillet over high heat. Add the oil and heat until smoking; then add the steaks. Cook for 1 minute, undisturbed. Flip steaks, drain off the fat, then cook another 1 minute, undisturbed. Meanwhile, gently smash the garlic cloves with the heel of your hand until you hear a crack, leaving the peels attached.Add 2 tablespoons of butter, garlic cloves, thyme, and rosemary to the skillet. Tilt the pan and continually baste the steaks with the hot butter as it browns and gets foamy. Take the pan off the heat as you baste if the butter is browning too quickly or the herbs and garlic are starting to burn. Add remaining tablespoon of butter; once the first side is well-browned, flip the steaks and continue basting-a French technique called arroser-until the butter is no longer foamy. (Once the steaks have been flipped, Chef Pandel continues basting with his pan entirely off the heat; you may need to do the same, depending on the variables of stove temperature, pan, and the steaks themselves.) When it's no longer foamy, the butter has done its job and the steaks should be well seared with a nice crust. Check the temperature of the steaks: for medium-rare, the internal temperature should be 125 degrees F-130 degrees F. Remove steaks to the rack to rest, about 10 minutes. Serve right away.

Tips for Cooking Strip Steaks Indoors:

  • Choose the right steak: Look for strip steaks that are at least 1 inch thick and have good marbling.
  • Season the steak liberally: Use a generous amount of salt and pepper, as well as any other desired seasonings.
  • Sear the steak in a hot pan: Sear the steak for 2-3 minutes per side over high heat to create a nice crust and lock in the juices.
  • Reduce the heat and cook to your desired doneness: Once the steak is seared, reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer for more well-done.
  • Let the steak rest before slicing: Allow the steak to rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute.

Conclusion:

Cooking strip steaks indoors is a great way to enjoy a delicious and flavorful steak without having to fire up the grill. By following these tips, you can cook a perfect strip steak that is juicy, tender, and full of flavor. Serve with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple green salad.
