Directions
Heat a cast iron pan for 2 to 3 minutes, until very hot. Place the steaks in the pan and cook them over very high heat for about 1+½ minutes on each side. Cover the pan, remove from the heat, and let stand for 3 to 5 minutes before serving. The steaks will continue to cook in their own residual heat but should remain pink inside.
