Step 7:

IMPORTANT NOTE:
If you want to roast a steak in the oven, it’s good to do so, even though you’re not going to get the brown crust. Just make sure that you do not keep the meat for too long in the oven so that it dries out and becomes strong. Depending on how well-done you prefer your steak, you can put your steak in an oven-proof pan and bake it for up to 15 minutes. Make sure that it is stirred halfway through the cooking time.
