Kittencal’s Pan-Seared Steak, Stove Top-To-Oven Method, There has been many requests for pan seared steak that is started in a skillet then finished cooking in the oven this is the recipe/method for the perfect seared steak—to insure perfect doneness you will need an instant-read thermometer for this, and you will need a cast-iron or a heavy oven-proof skillet — the times listed are for 2-1/2-inch thick steaks preferably New York or rib-eye. — IMPORTANT do not add on any salt until the steak is finished cooking, salt will draw out the juices, and make certain to leave the steak/s out at room temperature for 1-1/2 hours this will relax the meat fibers and make for a tender juicy steak, This is a really great steak recipe when you can’t/don’t want to barbecue. the flavour is amazing – that real cooked on the barbecue taste. I have made it a few times now and fantastic each time. Followed the recipe as written each time and it came out perfect every time. So glad I found this recipe and recommend it!, I have used many of your recipes and they are fantastic! But never let your oil smoke because its burning the oil. From Livestrong.com “A heated cooking oil is considered unsafe when it reaches its smoking point the temperature at which it begins to chemically break down and smoke continuously. At this point, the fat molecules break down into glycerol and free-fatty acids, and the glycerol breaks down further to produce toxic fumes and free radicals not to mention an unpleasant flavor.”
