Step 1There are two methods you can use to cook your steak depending on its thickness. If the steak is thick (1 1/2 - 1 3/4 inch / 4 - 4 1/2 cm), follow the instructions for Reverse-Seared Steak that requires both oven baking and pan searing. Otherwise, for thinner cuts, follow my guide to cook the steak on a pan. Once the steaks are cooked, transfer them onto a wire rack, loosely cover with a foil and let them rest for about 10 minutes before serving.
