Steaks in the oven
Description
The secret is that the meat heats evenly to just the right temperature needed for perfect doneness, without causing protein denaturation that occurs with higher heat. As a result, the meat stays tender and all the juices remain locked inside. But I won't overwhelm you with technical details—just read the recipe, and you'll see for yourself what the trick is. So, here's how to make steaks in the oven.

Preheat the oven. Line a baking sheet with a sheet of foil and pour 2 cups of salt onto it, spreading it into an even layer across the bottom. Place the steaks on a grill rack and set the rack over the salt, making sure the salt does not touch the steaks.

Step 5
Sear for 2-4 minutes, then flip the steaks and cook for another 2-4 minutes. Continue cooking for 2-4 minutes on each side until the internal temperature reaches 125 degrees on a meat thermometer. When the thermometer reaches 140 degrees, the steaks should be well done.
