Electric Skillet Steak
Why not quickly and easily cook up your steak in an electric skillet? I have a recipe for cooking two steaks, served with a savory herb butter.

Calories: 618kcal
Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 strip steaks of your choice @ approximately 4 ounces each
- 2 tablespoons butter softened
- 1 teaspoon Italian herbs
- salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
- Season the steaks with salt and pepper.
- In a small bowl combine the butter with the herbs and mix until well combined. Refrigerate.
- Preheat skillet over high heat, 400ºF. When the skillet light goes off (meaning it has reached the right temp.), place the steaks in the skillet.
- Cook on one side until browned. Once it browns, it will loosen from the pan.
- Flip over and brown the other side (approximately 1-2 minutes per side).
- Reduce heat to medium-low (for electric skillet, 250°F-275°F) and cook with cover on for approximately 5 mins., or to desired doneness using a meat thermometer.
- Serve the steaks with the herb butter.
