Instructions

🎙️ Cook with voice coach

Combine all Blackening Seasoning ingredients in a small bowl.
Pat the Steaks dry with paper towels. Generously coat both sides of each steak with the Blackening Seasoning.
Heat the Vegetable Oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until smoking hot.
Carefully place the seasoned Steaks in the hot skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, adjusting cooking time to desired doneness.
Remove the Steaks from the skillet and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
