A TENDER STEAK WITH BLUE CHEESE CRUST RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450°F. Combine the bread crumbs, cheese, parsley, and rosemary in a mixing bowl and set aside. Heat the oil in a large cast-iron skillet, grill pan, or stainless steel sauté pan over high heat. Season the steaks all over with salt and plenty of black pepper. Sear the first side of the meat for 2 minutes, until well browned. Flip the steaks and top each with a quarter of the bread crumb mixture, using your fingers to gently press it into the meat. Transfer the steaks to the oven to finish cooking (ideally in the pan if it's oven-proof, but if not, a baking sheet or dish will do). The steaks should be done in 5 to 6 minutes, when they feel firm but still springy to the touch (an internal thermometer should read 135°F for medium- rare). This should happen at the same time that the bread crumbs have browned nicely and formed a crust. Let the steaks rest for a few minutes before serving.
