Restaurant Steak at Home

I had paid very close attention in the past to what my husband said multiple times when we had been eating at a nice restaurant. He would mention something along the lines of,

Well the secret to a perfectly cooked steak is to finish it off in the oven.

What the whaa? I had never even thought about that the first time he mentioned it, but now that I know better… I completely agree with what he said.

So I knew that for his birthday a few years ago, this steak was going to be making an appearance in the oven, and I needed to figure out how to do it.

Come to find out, searing it in browned butter in a cast iron pan before slipping it into a hot oven… is my jam and now I'm showing you how to make your own oven steak recipe!

Look how to prepare steaks in this quick video and then we'll get into the fine details so you can make your own too:

How to Cook Steak in the Oven

It's no secret that I'm a major fan of cast iron. For goodness sake, I even styled a cast iron party for friends a few years ago!

So although a cast-iron is NOT required to make this recipe, I can't stress enough how much I love using it to make these.

Types of Steak to Cook at Home

For this oven steak recipe, I used two thick-cut ribeye steaks. (Almost an inch thick, although you don't HAVE to have steaks this same thickness.) You don't have to use ribeye's for this steak recipe though.

Feel free to use sirloin, NY strips, t-bone, porterhouse, any cut you like!

Then, for sides to serve with steaks, we have super easy side dish recipes for steak that pair perfectly!

Seasonings for Steak:

When I say "salt and pepper," in any of my recipes, you can go ahead and count on that I mean kosher salt and this cracked peppercorn medley.

It is the most DELICIOUS combo of seasonings on a steak.

(Now don't get me wrong. I love a good garlic pepper, lemon pepper, or any other seasoning for that matter… but it's hard to beat a steak covered in kosher salt and peppercorn. Combine that with browned butter, and it's game over with my taste buds. It's the BEST.)

Season Steak

You can salt and pepper your steaks, according to your taste. For these two, I used a total of about a tablespoon of kosher salt and a teaspoon of peppercorn to season both.

Browned butter is the way to my heart!

Cooking Steak in Browned Butter

I know it sounds like a step you can skip but trust me… DON'T skip this! Browning the butter (which means just cooking it at high heat for a minute or two, until the butter starts brownings) is the KEY to so much flavor added to a steak!

Sear the Steaks

Once the butter has browned, you'll add the steaks to the hot skillet to sear on each side for just a minute, and then it will go in to the oven. ( Make sure to scroll to the bottom of this post to see the full recipe card with step-by-step instructions! )

How Long to Cook Steak in Oven

The steak will only need 3 minutes in the oven after searing, and it will come out sizzling and smelling like you're in a delicious steakhouse! If using your cast iron, go ahead and slip the whole pan in the oven.

Just soak in that sizzle sound and heavenly smell during this process, would ya?

Within minutes, you have a baked steak that's ready to devour, and if this is your first time cooking a steak… congratulations!!! Wasn't that easy!?

How do you cook the perfect steak?

The secret is to keep it simple, use butter, simple spices, sear and broil it in the oven for a few minutes! It turns out to be the perfect steak every time!

How do you make steak flavorful?

Browned butter adds more flavor than you think it would. The combination of browned butter with kosher salt and peppercorn medley creates a steakhouse flavor that does NOT require steak sauce!

Is it better to cook steak on the stove or in the oven?

Both! You wouldn't think it would make that big of a difference, but it really does. The pan-searing on the stove gives the browned flavor you love and the really hot oven helps cook the steak through!

Steak Dinner Ideas

No steak is complete without amazing side dishes to go with it, right? When cooking a steak, a good way to "round out" the dinner is to serve a vegetable and a potato with it.

Sides for Steak

Now, of course, there are many options for steak sides, but there is an absolute favorite.

The side salad for steak is the best on the planet. (Seriously, it has almost 500 reviews).

But the steak dinner I made for my husband on his birthday (that you see here) I chose to make my all-time favorite healthy side dish recipes:roasted garlic broccoli, and fiesta potato wedges with a buffalo blue cheese bacon dip, to complete his dinner plate this year.
