Ingredients

  • 1 ½ pounds T-bone steak about 1-inch thick
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt or to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425°F.
  • Place a large cast-iron skillet over high heat and allow to heat for 5 minutes until very hot.
  • Rub the steak on all sides with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Then season with salt and pepper.
  • Once the pan is very hot, add the remaining oil and swirl to coat.
  • Carefully place the steak in the pan using kitchen tongs. Sear the first side for 2 minutes.
  • Flip using kitchen tongs and sear the other side for 2 minutes.
  • Add garlic and butter. Then immediately transfer the pan to the oven.
  • Bake for 2-3 minutes without flipping for medium-rare steaks (130°F/54°C), checking doneness by inserting an instant-read meat thermometer.
  • Remove steak to a plate or cutting board covered with aluminum foil to rest for 5 minutes so the juices can retreat back into the meat. Serve and enjoy!
