How to cook the perfect T-Bone Steak  ⁠
⁠
Ingredients⁠
⁠
• 900g T-bone steak, from the sirloin end (about 3-cm thick)⁠
⁠
• Coarsely ground black pepper⁠
⁠
• Salt⁠
⁠
• 1 to 2 tbsp oil, like groundnut, corn, or soy⁠
⁠
• Serving suggestions: Compound butter⁠
⁠
Method⁠
⁠
1) Preheat the oven to 230C/Gas Mark 8. A half-hour before cooking, remove steak from the refrigerator.⁠
⁠
2) Heat a large skillet over high heat. Pat steak dry and season generously with salt and pepper. Add oil to hot skillet and when it begins to smoke add steak.⁠
⁠
3) Reduce heat slightly and cook steak until browned, about 4 minutes on each side. Transfer skillet to the oven. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted sideways into the steak registers 50 degrees C for medium-rare, about 6 to 8 minutes.⁠
⁠
4) Transfer steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 10 minutes. Cut steak from the bone and carve meat across the grain.⁠
