EASY PAN-SEARED STEAK
The cast-iron skillet is essential for this recipe. Iron is heavy, and that means an iron pan holds the heat and distributes it evenly, so it browns well rather than scorching the food in some spots and leaving it pale in others. It's also nonstick.

Steps:
- Thoroughly pat steak dry with paper towels. Just before cooking, generously season with 1 1/2 tsp salt and 1 tsp black pepper
- Heat the cast iron pan until hot then add 1/2 Tbsp oil over medium-high heat, swirling to coat. Once the oil is very hot, add steaks to the skillet. Sear the steaks on the first side for 4 minutes until a brown crust has formed then flip and cook another 3-4 minutes. Using tongs, turn the steak on its sides to render the white fat and sear the edges (1-minute per edge).
- Reduce heat to medium and immediately add 2 Tbsp butter, quartered garlic cloves and rosemary to the pan. Spoon the butter sauce over the steak, tilting the pan to get butter on your spoon. Continue spooning the sauce over the steak for a minute or until the steak is about 5-10 degrees from your desired doneness (the temperature will continue to rise another 5-10 degrees while steaks rest).
- Transfer steak to a cutting board, loosely cover and rest 10 minutes before slicing into 1/2" strips to serve. Spoon extra butter sauce over sliced steak to serve.

Steps:
- Place the steak flat in a large nonreactive dish such as glass or porcelain. Using the tip of a sharp knife, lightly score the top of the steak diagonally in a large crisscross pattern to make what looks like 1-inch diamonds across the steak. This allows the marinade to penetrate into the meat.
- In a 2-cup measuring cup, whisk together the wine, olive oil, mustard, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Stir in the shallots and garlic. Pour the marinade over and under the steak until it's completely coated. Scatter the tarragon on top. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and allow it to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours but preferably overnight.
- Half an hour before serving, remove the steak from the refrigerator and heat a charcoal grill with a layer of hot coals. (You can also set a gas grill on medium-high heat.) Sprinkle the steak with 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Discard the remaining marinade.
- Grill the steak for about 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Place the steak on a clean plate, cover tightly with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Slice the steak thin, cutting diagonally across the grain. Sprinkle with salt and serve hot.

PAN-SEARED STRIP STEAK WITH MUSTARD CREAM SAUCE
Vermouth is used to deglaze the skillet the steak is cooked in, then enriched with cream to make an addictive pan sauce. A spoonful of Dijon mustard adds a subtle kick.

Steps:
- Steaks: Heat a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high until it is very hot but not smoking, about 2 minutes. Pat steaks dry with paper towel. Season steaks on both sides with salt and pepper. Add half the butter to the skillet and set one of the steaks directly on top. Repeat with remaining butter and steak. Without moving the steaks, sear until steaks release easily from pan and a golden brown crust has formed, about 4 minutes. Using tongs, turn steaks over and continue cooking until an instant-read thermometer reaches 115 to 120 degrees for rare, 125 degrees for medium-rare, and 135 to 140 degrees for medium. Transfer steaks to a warm plate to rest.
- Sauce: Remove pan from heat and carefully pour in vermouth (it will spatter). Return skillet to heat. Deglaze pan, stirring up any browned bits with a wooden spoon, and cook until liquid is almost completely reduced, about 45 seconds. Add cream and any juices that have collected from steak; stir to combine. Stir in mustard; heat 15 seconds. Cook until sauce lightly coats the back of a spoon, about 10 seconds. Season with salt and pepper.
- Place steaks on dinner plates and pour sauce over the top, dividing evenly, before serving.
