Beef veal steak in a pan
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. Although many consider steaks to be purely manly food, in our family everyone loves them without exception, and my mom is especially delighted—they're her favorite. She even has her own special way of preparing them. And it's exactly this method I'd like to share with you, explaining how to cook veal steak in a skillet. It's quick to prepare and always turns out juicy. Steaks in restaurants are usually grilled, but we've always managed without a grill, cooking veal steak right in a skillet at home. However, the skillet should be a good cast-iron one. And here's another little secret to juicy meat: after frying, we place small pieces of butter on the steaks and put them in the oven for a couple of minutes. This makes the veal absolutely delicious. The ready dish can now be served at the table.

Step 1
First, we rinse the steaks and pat them dry. Then, we coat them on all sides with olive oil, season with spices and salt, and let them sit at room temperature for 30–40 minutes. If you're short on time, you can skip the marinating and start cooking immediately.
