Cooking Instructions:
-
Preparation:
-
Bring the steaks to room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking.
-
Lightly season with salt, freshly cracked black pepper, and a touch of olive oil to enhance the natural flavor.
-
Cooking Method:
-
Grilling: Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Cook the steaks for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer (130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium).
-
Pan-Seared: Heat a cast-iron skillet over high heat with a small amount of butter or oil. Sear the steaks for 3-4 minutes on each side, creating a golden crust. Lower the heat and cook for another 2-3 minutes if needed.
-
Oven Finish: After searing in a skillet, transfer the steaks to a 400°F oven and cook for 5-7 minutes for medium-rare.
-
Resting: Let the steaks rest for 5-10 minutes after cooking. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring every bite is tender and flavorful.
Serving Suggestions:
-
Pairings:
-
Vegetables: Serve with roasted root vegetables such as carrots, parsnips, or sweet potatoes to complement the steak’s earthy tones.
-
Sauces: A wild berry reduction, red wine jus, or mushroom cream sauce adds an elegant touch.
-
Sides: Pair with creamy mashed potatoes, wild rice, or grilled asparagus for a balanced plate.
-
Presentation:
Slice the steak against the grain for maximum tenderness and arrange on a rustic wooden board or a sleek ceramic plate. Garnish with fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme for visual appeal and a hint of aroma.
