How can I cook the perfect steak?
assistant
The perfect steak starts with the right cut of meat. Choose the right cut that you enjoy eating. For example, a ribeye or New York Strip steak are great choices. Once you have your cut, season it with salt and pepper. Let the steak sit at room temperature for 20-30 minutes before placing it on the grill or in a skillet. When it's time to cook it, make sure your grill or skillet is hot. Cook the steak for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare and an additional 2 minutes per side for medium. Finally, let the steak rest for 5 minutes before enjoying.
