Tools:
- Tongs.
- Cast iron skillet.
- Meat thermometer.
- Small saucepan (if making a pan sauce).
Instructions:
1. Get the steaks ready: Take the steaks out of the fridge for about half an hour before you start cooking. This helps them cook evenly.
2. Spice things up: Salt, pepper, maybe a bit of garlic powder if you’re feeling fancy.
3. Time to sear: Get a pan hot, real hot. Add some oil so they don’t stick. Throw the steaks in and let them cook for a couple minutes on each side. You want that nice brown crust.
4. Cannabutter time: Add some cannabutter and maybe some fresh herbs to the pan. Let that melt and get all fragrant.
5. Baste those babies: Tilt the pan and spoon that melted goodness over the steaks for a minute or two. Keeps them juicy and adds flavor.
6. Check the temp: Use a meat thermometer to make sure they’re cooked how you like them. Rare is around 120-125°F, medium-rare is 130-135°F, and medium is 140-145°F.
7. Rest up: Take them out of the pan and let them chill for a few minutes. This lets the juices settle, so every bite is amazing.
8. Make a sauce: Add some wine or broth to the pan while it’s still hot. Scrape up those yummy bits stuck to the bottom. Let it simmer for a bit.
9. Finish strong: Stir a little more cannabutter into the sauce. Makes it silky smooth and adds more flavor.
