Step 1: Sear the steak
Steak
- flank, skirt, or flatiron steak227 g1/2 lb
- salt3 g1%
- cooking oil
Salt the steak all over and let it rest while you preheat a sauté pan over medium high heat.
Once the pan is hot, add a drizzle of oil to coat the cooking surface.
Add the steak to the pan and let it for several minutes, allowing a nice brown crust to develop. Then flip the steak over and let it sear on the other side.
- Remove when cooked to your desired temperature. For medium well, pull the steak when the middle reaches 135°F/57°C
