Grilled Steak
A simply seasoned steak grilled to a perfect crust and juicy center - salting well ahead of time, rather than right before grilling, is what lets the seasoning penetrate the meat and gives the sear a better crust.

Ingredients
- •4 ribeye steaks
- •3 tbsp olive oil
- •Salt to taste
- •Pepper to taste
Steps
- 1.Season the steaks generously with salt at least 40 minutes before grilling (or up to overnight, uncovered in the fridge) - salting ahead of time lets it penetrate the meat instead of just sitting on the surface.
- 2.Pat the steaks dry and rub with olive oil and pepper just before grilling.
- 3.Preheat the grill to high heat.
- 4.Grill for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare.
- 5.Rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing - cutting in too soon lets the juices run out onto the plate instead of redistributing through the meat.
