EASY PAN-SEARED STEAK



Easy Pan-Seared Steak image

The cast-iron skillet is essential for this recipe. Iron is heavy, and that means an iron pan holds the heat and distributes it evenly, so it browns well rather than scorching the food in some spots and leaving it pale in others. It's also nonstick.

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 one-inch-thick boneless sirloin steaks (or 4 one-inch-thick strip steaks)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper

With the right steak, a good cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet, your kitchen can be the best steakhouse in town.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Beef Recipes

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 boneless rib-eye or New York strip (shell) steak, 1 1/2 to 2 pounds and 2 1/2 inches thick, room temperature
Coarse salt and cracked (butcher-grind) pepper
Steak Butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400. Heat oil in a large cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet (not a nonstick) over medium-high until it begins to smoke. Pat steak dry with paper towels. Season each side with 1 teaspoon coarse salt and 1 teaspoon cracked pepper.
  • Cook steak in skillet over medium-high heat until a dark crust has formed, 5 to 7 minutes per side (reduce heat if meat is browning too quickly). Holding steak with tongs, quickly brown all edges, turning as necessary; lay steak flat in skillet.
  • Transfer skillet to oven. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of steak registers desired doneness, 5 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a plate; spread with 1 tablespoon Steak Butter. Cover loosely with aluminum foil, and let rest 5 to 10 minutes (temperature will then rise another 5 to 10 degrees). Slice across the grain; serve with remaining Steak Butter. Cover and refrigerate any leftovers, up to 2 days.

Categories     Dinner

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 thick rib eye steak, 2 in (5 cm) preferably USDA prime
1 teaspoon salt, to taste
1 teaspoon pepper, to taste
3 tablespoons canola oil
2 tablespoons butter
2 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
3 sprigs fresh thyme

Steps:

  • Transfer to a wire rack on top of a baking sheet, and bake for about 45 minutes to an hour, until the internal temperature reads about 125°F/50˚C for medium-rare. Adjust the bake time if you like your steak more rare or well-done.

  • Sear the steak for 1 minute on one side, then flip.
  • Add the butter, garlic, rosemary, and thyme, and swirl around the pan. Transfer the garlic and herbs on top of the steak and baste the steak with the butter using a large spoon.

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 lbs New York Strip Steaks (2 steaks) (or Ribeye or Top Sirloin Steaks (1 lb each steak, 1 1/4" thick))

PAN-SEARED STEAK AND ONIONS



Pan-Seared Steak and Onions image

Usually cooked over an open fire in an iron skillet; this stove-top seared steak with bourbon-flavored onions is excellent eaten with sourdough bread. Sourdough, developed during the gold rush years, was made with a yeast started of flour mixed with water until it fermented and soured.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 large onions, sliced
1 boneless sirloin steak (about 2 pounds)
Salt and pepper
1/2 cup bourbon

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 15 minutes. Transfer the onions to a bowl and set aside.
  • Generously season both sides of the steak with salt and pepper. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of the oil to the skillet and fry the steak over medium heat, turning once, until browned, about 6 minutes per side for medium. Transfer the steak to a serving platter and cover to keep warm.
  • Add the bourbon to the skillet and, over medium heat, scrape up any bits that cling to the pan. Allow the liquor to simmer until reduced by half, about 1 minute. Add the onions and the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and stir until the butter is melted. Reduce the heat and gently simmer until the onions are heated through, about 2 minutes. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper and stir in any juices that have run off from the steak.
  • To serve, cut the steak into 1/4-inch-thick slices and top with the onions.

PAN-SEARED BEEF STEAKS



Pan-Seared Beef Steaks image

I often pan-sear steaks Vietnamese style, with lots of garlic, black pepper, and Maggi Seasoning sauce, a favorite condiment of the Vietnamese. Thinly slice the steaks so guests may help themselves with chopsticks, plus the juices released are delicious mixed into a bowl of rice. Or, make the steaks part of a Western knife-and-fork meal (bit-tet is the Viet transliteration of the French bifteck) and serve with crispy fried potatoes instead of rice (see Stir-Fried Beef with Crispy Fried Potatoes, page 140, for guidance on cooking the potatoes).

Yield serves 4 to 6 with 2 or 3 other dishes

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 New York strip (top loin) or tri-tip (bottom sirloin) steaks, each 8 to 10 ounces and about 1 inch thick, or 2 to 2 1/2 pounds top sirloin steak, about 1 inch thick
4 large cloves garlic, minced
3/4 teaspoon black pepper
3 tablespoons Maggi Seasoning sauce, preferably Chinese made, or light (regular) soy sauce
3 tablespoons canola or other neutral oil

Steps:

  • Trim the steaks of any gristle. If you are using top sirloin, cut into 4 steaks of roughly equal size. To make the marinade, in a shallow bowl large enough to accommodate the steaks, combine the garlic, pepper, Maggi sauce, and oil and mix well. Add the steaks and use your fingers to coat all sides. Set aside for 30 minutes, turning the steaks over after 15 minutes.
  • Heat a 12-inch heavy-bottomed or cast-iron skillet over medium heat until hot. To test if it is ready, flick a drop of water into it. It should immediately dance and then evaporate. Add the steaks and let them cook, undisturbed, for 6 minutes. The steaks should be well browned on the underside. Use tongs to turn the steaks over. Cook them on the second side, undisturbed, for another 4 minutes for rare, 5 minutes for medium-rare, and 6 minutes for medium. If you are unsure about the doneness of the meat, nick a steak with the sharp point of a paring knife and check the color.
  • Transfer the steaks to a plate and tent loosely with aluminum foil. Let rest for 5 minutes before thinly slicing across the grain. Arrange the slices on a platter and include the juices, too. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Select the right steak: Choose a sirloin steak that is at least 1 inch thick and has good marbling. This will ensure that the steak is tender and flavorful.
  • Season the steak liberally: Before cooking, season the steak with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices. This will help to enhance the flavor of the meat.
  • Sear the steak in a hot pan: When cooking the steak, heat a pan over high heat and then sear the steak for 2-3 minutes per side. This will create a nice crust on the outside of the steak while keeping the inside tender and juicy.
  • Let the steak rest before slicing: After cooking, let the steak rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.

Conclusion:

Pan-seared sirloin steak is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following these tips, you can create a steak that is perfectly cooked and full of flavor. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give pan-seared sirloin steak a try!
