1 How long this takes depends on how thick the steak is and how well you want it to be done. 2  A one-inch (2.5-centimeter) thick steak will take about four minutes for rare steak and about 10 minutes for a well-done steak. 3  Half way through the cooking time, turn the steak over in the pan [source: Delia Smith ].
Peek at the underside of the steak every 60 seconds or so until a nice row of grill marks appears. Note how long it took to get those grill marks on the timer/stopwatch. It should take three to six minutes depending on the heat of the grill. Rotate (not flip) the steak 45 degrees and allow the steak to sear for as long as it took to get the first set of grill marks. Now is the time to flip and repeat the process on the other side. Once the steak has cross-hatch grill marks on both sides, send it to the side with no heat.
