Perfect Steak

Heat a cast iron skillet and when nice and hot put in steak ( sprinkled with olive oil and seasoned as desired). Cook on one side for 3 minutes, then turn and cook on other side for 2 minutes. Place skillet in hot oven (450 degrees) and cook for 5 minutes. The steaks come out perfectly medium rare.

The recipe sounded so failsafe that I went out and bought a new cast iron skillet to use only for this recipe. When I fixed this for dinner one night, I ate the whole thing. The best steak I ever cooked. I used a T-bone, about 1" thick.
