Pan-Seared Strip Loin Steak

Pan-Seared Strip Loin Steak

Today, I used chili pepper-infused olive oil to elevate the flavors of my steak. However, feel free to use any cooking oil of your choice. I can confidently say that my recipe is not only delicious but also incredibly satisfying. I hope you will all savor every bite!

Ingredients:

  • 1 (16-ounce) strip loin steak 

  • Seasoning salt, to taste

  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

  • 1 tablespoon of chili pepper-infused olive oil (or preferred cooking oil)

  • 4 tablespoons of butter

  • 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons of minced garlic

Instructions:

To prepare the strip steak, start by patting it dry with paper towels and generously seasoning it with seasoning salt at least 40 minutes before cooking.


Next, preheat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat for 4 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon of chili pepper-infused olive oil (or preferred cooking oil) and allow it to heat up for about 1 minute.

Season the steak with freshly ground black pepper just before searing. Place the seasoned steak in the hot skillet and sear both sides for a couple of minutes.


Add smoked paprika, minced garlic, and butter to the skillet, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Let the butter melt and infuse the steak with flavor. If desired, baste the steak with extra melted butter.


Cook the steak to your desired level of doneness. Remember to turn the steak only once to prevent it from drying out (approximately 10 minutes per side, for my preference). Adjust the cooking time based on the thickness of the steak and the heat of your stove.


Allow the cooked steak to rest for 5 to 10 minutes to ensure the muscle fibers relax before serving.


Serve and enjoy!

It may sound fancy, but it's actually pretty simple and fun. Let's dive in! What You'll Need: First things first, you'll need some rockwool cubes . These are like little sponges that help your plants grow strong and healthy. You'll also need some vegetable seeds, a tray to hold the cubes, and water. I personally use these hydroponic grow trays with dome lids. Step 1: Soak the Cubes Before you plant your seeds, you'll need to soak the rockwool cubes in water. This helps them absorb moisture and provides a good environment for your plants to grow. Step 2: Plant Your Seeds Once your cubes are nice and soaked, it's time to plant your seeds. Make a little hole in the top of each cube and drop a couple of seeds in. Some seeds are so tiny and I generally end up planting more than two in each cube. ...
