Steps To Make Gordon Ramsay Steak

1. The Process Begins

Take two cloves of garlic and two rosemary sprigs, and mince them to make the steak. Meanwhile, let the steak rest at room temperature for about 10 minutes.

Then, heavily season the steak with salt and pepper from both sides. Place a cast-iron skillet on heat and add olive oil to it. Once the oil is heated, add butter to it.

Place the steak in the oil and avoid splashing. Don’t move the steak around and let it cook undisturbed. The key is to flip it just once.

2. Adding Flavors

Add minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme leaves to the oil as well. Spoon the oil over the steak so the garlic and herby flavor go into it.

If you want to cook the steak rare, cook the bottom side for about 2-3 minutes. Then, flip it and cook it for a minute and a half. Spoon the oil over the steak again.

When done, flip it again and cook for just half a minute and then take it out. Place the steak gently on a plate and leave it undisturbed for about 10 minutes. Then, cut it and serve.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is a good way to cook steak?

Put a skillet to high heat and sear steaks for 3 minutes per side. Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue cooking with the lid closed until the steaks reach the desired level of doneness.

What is the best thing to season steak with?

When seasoning a steak, you can’t go wrong with freshly cracked black pepper and kosher salt. Finishing salts such as flaky sea salt and can be applied at the end as a final touch. Add some chopped herbs such as thyme, rosemary or sage to your salt to make a flavored salt for your steak.

How do you keep a steak juicy?

Keep the meat moist either with a marinade or with careful cooking over a less high heat for a shorter time. To prevent meat from shrinking up into little wads when it cooks, cut it against the grain.

What gives steak more flavor?

Salt is must when seasoning steak. It will not only add flavor to your meat, but it will also help make steak juicy and tender. When you salt your steak before you cook it, the salt sits on the meat and draws moisture to the surface. But, the removal of this moisture doesn’t make the steak less juicy.

Why is my steak tough and dry?

Overcooking meat can make it tough. That’s because heat causes the proteins in the meat to firm up. Overcooking also basically squeezes the moisture out of the meat, making it dry as well as tough.
