Kittencal's Perfect Pan-Fried Steak image

For perfect results plan ahead the steaks must be brought down to almost room temperature which might take several hours, this recipe works perfectly for beef tenderloin steaks of coarse you may use it for any cut of beef, cooking times stated is for an 8-ounce steak at 1-1/2 inch thick --- I use Montreal Steak Spice for this but freshly ground coarse black pepper will work fine, and you may adjust the black pepper to taste, since salt will draw out the juices from the beef do not salt until after cooking --- since not all cuts of meat are the same, for this method a more tender cut of steak is suggested to use such a strip loin etc.

The steak was a bit tough and the seasoning was a bit bland. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
