COOKING EYE OF ROUND STEAK RECIPES

Steps:

• Place a 10-to-12-inch cast-iron skillet in the oven and heat the oven to 500 degrees F. Bring the steak to room temperature.
• When the oven reaches temperature, remove the skillet and place on the range over high heat for 5 minutes. Coat the steak lightly with oil and sprinkle both sides with a generous pinch of salt. Grind on black pepper.
• Immediately place the steak in the middle of the hot, dry skillet. Cook 30 seconds without moving. Turn with tongs and cook another 30 seconds, then put the pan straight into the oven for 2 minutes. Flip the steak and cook for another 2 minutes. (This time is for medium-rare steak. If you prefer medium, add a minute to both of the oven turns.)
• Remove the steak from the skillet, cover loosely with foil and rest for 2 minutes. Serve whole or slice thin and fan onto plate.

Steps:

• In a heated skillet, drop in a tablespoon of butter. Making sure not to burn the butter.
• Season with salt and pepper and sear the eye of round steaks in your skillet. Moving the steaks unnecessarily will make it tough and rubbery.
• Sear the edges of your steak until a crisp, golden brown outer layer forms. Or you can do the finger test to check if it is medium-rare.
• Now, drop in another tablespoon of butter to your skillet.
• Throw in a few sprigs of fresh rosemary and 2 cloves of crushed garlic. The rosemary-garlic infused butter will add a great depth of flavor to your steak. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
• Make a simple gravy from pan drippings with this simple recipe. In the same skillet add your beef broth, onion powder, and paprika.
• Add a few tablespoons of balsamic vinegar, cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until it comes to a boil.
• Turn the heat to medium-high and mix the cornstarch (or flour) to your gravy and bring to a boil.
• Drizzle over your seared medium-rare eye of round steak and dig in! This decadent slice of heaven is sure to leave you craving for more.
