INSTRUCTIONS
Trim excess fat from steak and reserve. Sprinkle each side of the steak
with salt and pepper and let stand at room temperature for 1 hour. Heat
heavy cast iron skillet over high heat. Grease the skillet with the
reserved beef fat. Sear the steak quickly on both sides, only 2 minutes per
side Reduce heat to med, continue cooking for additional 2 to 3 minutes
each side to the desired degree of doneness. You can use an instant-read
meat thermometer (125 to 130 F for medium-rare). Remove the steak to a warm
platter and keep warm in a oven while you make a sauce by deglazing the
pan. Discard all but 1 tablespoon of fat from the skillet. Put pan back
over moderate heat and add the liquid. When liquid boils, scrape pan with a
wooden spoon to loosen the good stuff sticking to pan bottom. Continue
cooking until liquid is reduced in volume and slightly thickened. Stir in
butter. Pour sauce over steak and serve. Makes 1 to 3 servings.

A Message from our Provider:
“A thankful heart is one of the primary identifying characteristics of a believer. It stands in stark contrast to pride, selfishness, and worry. And it helps fortify the believer’s trust in the Lord and reliance of His provision, even in the toughest times. No matter how choppy the seas become, a believer’s heart is buoyed by constant praise and gratefulness to the Lord. #John MacArthur”
