STEAKHOUSE STEAKS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Heat a large, well-seasoned cast iron skillet over high heat until very hot, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Meanwhile, pat the steaks dry with a paper towel and brush them lightly with vegetable oil. Combine the fleur de sel and cracked pepper on a plate and roll the steaks in the mixture, pressing lightly to evenly coat all sides.
- When the skillet is ready, add the steaks and sear them evenly on all sides for about 2 minutes per side, for a total of 10 minutes.
- Top each steak with a tablespoon of butter, if using, and place the skillet in the oven. Cook the steaks until they reach 120 degrees F for rare or 125 degrees F for medium-rare on an instant-read thermometer. (To test the steaks, insert the thermometer sideways to be sure you're actually testing the middle of the steak.)
- Remove the steaks to a serving platter, cover tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest at room temperature for 10 minutes. Serve hot with Roquefort Chive Sauce on the side.
- Bring the heavy cream to a boil in a small heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook at a low boil, stirring occasionally, until the mixture has become thick and creamy, about 20 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, add the cheese, salt, pepper and chives and whisk rapidly until the cheese melts.

Tips:
- Use high-quality steaks. Look for steaks that are well-marbled with a nice, even color.
- Season the steaks generously with salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
- Cook the steaks over high heat. This will help to create a nice crust on the outside of the steak while keeping the inside tender and juicy.
- Don't overcook the steaks. The best way to tell if a steak is done is to use a meat thermometer. The internal temperature of a rare steak should be 125 degrees Fahrenheit, a medium-rare steak should be 135 degrees Fahrenheit, and a medium steak should be 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the steaks rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, making it more tender and flavorful.

There you have it! With these recipes, you can easily cook a steakhouse-quality steak at home. Just remember to use high-quality ingredients, season the steaks generously, cook them over high heat, and don't overcook them. With a little practice, you'll be able to cook a perfect steak every time.
