Gordon Ramsay N.Y. Strip Steak, Fingerling Potatoes, and Mushrooms

Michelin star chef Gordon Ramsay first coats his steaks with a seasoning of salt and pepper on both sides before cooking; that goes without saying. But this Gordon Ramsay steak recipe uses a special Gordon Ramsay steak seasoning rub, BBQ sauce, and cognac to flambés the steak. How does Gordon Ramsay like his steak cooked?

Gordon prefers his steaks on the rare side and the steak is typically cooked sous vide at 165 degrees. After seasoning the steak with salt and pepper on both sides he adds a splash of oil then quickly sears the steak in an iron skillet to give the outside a nice texture and color. 

There are plenty of myths circulating about the best way how to cook a steak. Don’t use a fork to flip your steak. Only salt and pepper your steak after it’s completed cooking. Always purchase the highest-quality steak you can afford for pan-searing, and in my opinion, it either a boneless NY strip or a big and juicy rib-eye.

My favorite pan to cook a NY strip steak is a 12-inch cast iron skillet from the lodge; they come preseason as grill pan or not. 

How to Make Gordon Ramsay Grilled Steak

You season it very well with Gordon Ramsay Steak Seasoning about 30 minutes before you are going to cook it, and then lastly, cook the steak hot and fast with oil to start and butter when finishing. What about resting the steak step? Well… resting might turn out not to be as critical as once believed.
