Steaks (2 servings)
Ingredients:
2 – USDA prime New York strip steaks
Kosher salt
Cooking Instructions:
Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
Sprinkle a pinch of kosher salt on each side of the steaks. Salt will add flavor while the meat comes to room temperature, which is better for cooking.
Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium heat on the stovetop for about one minute.
Place meat fat side down in the skillet. This will help season and make sure the meat doesn’t stick to the pan.
Sear the meat on each side until browned, including the side edges. For medium, sear two minutes per side. For medium-rare, one minute per side.
Turn the heat off the last 30 seconds of stovetop cooking with steaks in the skillet.
Remove cast iron skillet from stovetop and place in oven.
Bake 12 minutes for medium-rare, 15 minutes for medium.
Remove the skillet from the oven, remove steak from the skillet, and place steak on the cutting board.
Allow steak to rest for one minute.
Plate the steak and place 1 tbsp of Maître D' Butter on top.

½ tsp kosher salt
