Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • Steak ribeye, T-bone, or sirloin, 300–400 g
  • Olive oil 2 tbsp / 30 ml
  • Salt 1 tbsp / 15 g
  • Black pepper 1 tsp / 5 g
  • Garlic butter optional, 1 tbsp / 15 g
  • Pre-made Caesar salad mix

Method
 

Prepare the Steak
  1. Take the steak out of the fridge 30 minutes before cooking to let it come to room temperature.
  2. Rub olive oil on both sides and season generously with salt and pepper.
Sear and Cook
  1. Heat a grill or heavy skillet over high heat.
  2. Sear the steak for 4–5 minutes per side for medium-rare (internal temp: 130°F / 54°C).
  3. If you’re unsure, a meat thermometer is your best friend—unless you enjoy guessing and cutting into it too early (spoiler: I learned the hard way).
  4. Rest and Serve

Notes

Let the steak rest for 5 minutes. Top it with garlic butter while resting for extra flavor.
Serve sliced alongside the pre-made Caesar salad.
