At long last, the perfect steak. I was really craving a steak with a bone in it; I had to have it. And now that I have, I can’t stop wanting another! To make this one, get a bone-in ribeye steak. Remove it from the refrigerator. In a dish (I like using a glass pie pan), mix together 1/2 teaspoon of flaky sea salt, 1/2 teaspoon of freshly cracked black pepper, 1/4 teaspoon of white pepper, 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon of cumin, 1/2 teaspoon of coriander, and 1/4 teaspoon of dried rosemary. Pat the steak dry, and press it into the spice mixture with your fingers. Let the steak come to room temperature.
Then, heat a cast iron skillet so that a drop of water flicked onto its surface disappears immediately. Coat the pan with a high smoke point-oil (I used macadamia nut oil), and place your steak in the pan. Let it cook for 4-6 minutes without moving it, then flip it and cook it for another 4-6 minutes on the other side depending on how well done you prefer your steak. Remove the steak to a side plate, tent it with tin foil, and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Then, eat the perfectly seasoned meat, and gnaw away on the bone. No one will judge you.
These roasted baby potatoes are an easy side dish. Dump the potatoes into a baking dish, and drizzle on enough olive oil to coat them. Thinly slice 2 garlic cloves, and add those in, along with salt, pepper, and some fresh rosemary. Bake the potatoes at 400ºF for about 30 minutes until they start to shrivel and can easily be pierced with a fork. Yum.
