Cast-Iron Skillet Steak

1. 1

   Remove steak from refrigerator and sprinkle with 2 teaspoons salt; let stand 45-60 minutes.

2. 2

   Preheat a cast-iron skillet over high heat until extremely hot, 4-5 minutes. Sprinkle remaining 1 teaspoon salt in bottom of skillet; pat beef dry with paper towels. Place steak into skillet and cook until steak is easily moved, 1-2 minutes; flip, placing steak in a different section of the skillet. Cook 30 seconds and then begin moving steak, occasionally pressing slightly to ensure even contact with skillet.

3. 3

   Continue turning and flipping until cooked to desired degree of doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135u00b0; medium, 140u00b0; medium-well, 145u00b0), 1-2 minutes.
