Cooking steak in a pan is a culinary technique that involves searing and cooking a steak in a pan over direct heat. It is a popular method of cooking steak as it allows for a flavorful and juicy steak with a crispy exterior. To cook a steak in a pan, one should first season the steak with salt and pepper, then heat a pan over medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot, add the steak to the pan and sear it for 2-3 minutes per side, or until a golden brown crust forms. Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue to cook the steak, flipping it occasionally, until it reaches the desired doneness.
Cooking steak in a pan has several advantages. First, it is a quick and easy method of cooking steak. Second, it allows for a great deal of control over the cooking process, so one can cook the steak to their desired doneness. Third, it is a versatile method that can be used to cook any type of steak. Finally, it is a relatively healthy method of cooking steak, as it uses little to no oil or butter.
