📝 Preparation Steps
1
Use a knife to square up the ends of the steak, then cut the picanha with the grain into 1.5-inch thick steaks. I use two fingers to measure the thickness. Sprinkle with salt and let the meat come to room temperature.
2
Preheat a cast iron skillet on high heat and preheat the oven to 350°F. Sear the fat side down first until a nice crust forms. Then, lay the steaks flat on their sides to cook for one minute.
3
Flip your steaks and continue searing for one minute until both sides are seared to perfection.
4
Transfer to the center rack of the oven to bake for approximately ⏱️ 5 minutes.
5
Carefully remove the hot skillet with oven mitts and use an instant meat thermometer to check for the desired doneness. Transfer the meat to a cutting board to rest.
