Tomahawk Steak 1 (about 2-2.5 pounds)
Salt As needed
Pepper As needed
Oil 1 tablespoon

Take note
Be careful when handling the hot oven and steak to avoid burns. Make sure to use oven mitts and exercise caution at all times.

1

Preheat the oven

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and allow it to heat up for about 15 minutes. We want that oven nice and hot!

2

Season the steak

Generously season your Tomahawk Steak with salt and pepper on both sides. Don't be shy, this steak can handle some flavor!

3

Sear the steak

Heat a cast iron skillet over high heat on the stovetop. Once the skillet is smoking hot, add a tablespoon of oil. Carefully place the steak in the skillet and sear it for 2-3 minutes on each side. This will give it a nice crust.

4

Transfer to the oven

Using oven mitts, transfer the cast iron skillet with the seared steak directly into the preheated oven. Cook the steak for about 15-20 minutes or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. For a medium-rare steak, aim for an internal temperature of 130°F (55°C).

5

Rest and serve

Once the steak is cooked to perfection, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a tender and juicy steak. Slice against the grain and serve immediately. Enjoy!
