Sure! Here’s a simple recipe for cooking sirloin steak:
Ingredients:
- 2 sirloin steaks, about 1 inch thick
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or vegetable oil
- Optional: garlic powder, onion powder, or your favorite steak seasoning
Instructions:
- Remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to an hour before cooking. This helps them cook more evenly.
- Preheat your grill or skillet to medium-high heat. If using a skillet, you can add a little oil to prevent sticking.
- Pat the steaks dry with paper towels and season both sides generously with salt and pepper. You can also add any additional seasonings you like, such as garlic powder or steak seasoning.
- Once the grill or skillet is hot, place the steaks on it. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust the cooking time to your desired level of doneness.
- Avoid pressing down on the steaks with a spatula while cooking, as this can cause the juices to escape and result in a less juicy steak.
- Once the steaks are cooked to your liking, remove them from the heat and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender steak.
- Serve your sirloin steaks with your favorite side dishes, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a crisp salad.
Enjoy your delicious sirloin steak!
