Ingredients For easy sous vide steaks

How To Make easy sous vide steaks

  • 1
    Generously season the steaks on all sides with salt, freshly ground black pepper, and dry rub.
  • 2
    Place them individually in a plastic bag and pour on about ½ tablespoon oil per bag; vacuum seal it.
  • 3
    Set the sous vide temperature to 135ºF for 1 hour.
  • 4
    When the temperature is reached minus 1 degree, immerse the sealed bags in the water and cook them until the alarm goes off.
  • 5
    Remove from the bag and set aside.
  • 6
    In a cast iron pan or skillet with ridges over high heat, add butter and 1 tsp. oil.
  • 7
    When it starts sizzling, place steaks in the hot pan and sear them for 1 minute per side or enough to get those gorgeous grill marks on them.
  • 8
    Transfer the steaks to a cutting board, cover with foil and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
