We were glad the restaurant we like couldn't take us this valentine Day. For
we just finish our meal at home.
On the menu were.
2 18 ounce rib eye steaks
2 sweet potatoes
2 leafy salad
2 glasses of red wine
2 Blueberry/strawberry cobblers.
And we mustn't forget the coffee
I prepare the steak and let them set out for a hour before cooking by
salt/peppering both sides of the steak after I rinsed them off with cold
water and patted them dry. Than coated them with olive oil.
When it was time, seared the steaks by first heating up my 14 inch cast iron
skillet for 5 minutes. Than added olive oil to the skillet and placing the
steaks in the skillet for 3 minutes before I turn the steaks over and did
another three minutes. Than place the steaks in a pre-heated 375 degree oven
for 3 more minutes. Pulled the steaks out at a temp of 134 degree. Didn't
have my wife do the thermometer thing, but by putting the steaks on a couple
hot plates and adding a couple pads of butter to each steak and tenting them
with foil, the steaks were a round 140 degrees when we got to them.
The steaks were ever so juicy, they melted in your mouth.
Now we are waiting for room to eat our dessert.
