This method is simple to follow and results in a perfectly cooked steak with a crispy crust every time. This bold yet balanced red wine has a smooth finish with just the right level of tannins.If you’re looking for an impressive and delicious steak to serve at home, try this easy recipe for Pan Seared Ribeye. The flavor building doesn’t stop there, after gentle pressing the wine is aged for 14 months in French, American, and Hungarian oak. This allows the water to break down the cell walls of the grape solids, which means that more flavors, colors, and aromas are extracted into the wine. Not only are the grapes handpicked, but the winemakers also allow the crushed grapes to cold-soak for three days. What makes Terra d’Oro 2015 Zinfandel selection interesting is the science behind the winemaking process. A swirl of butter whisked in adds a little more richness to the red wine sauce right before serving. It’s lovely! Just a small amount of acid from the vinegar brightens and heightens the flavors of the wine. The sauce is further reduced with fresh rosemary, thyme, balsamic vinegar, and some beef stock until a thickened. You can taste the subtle caramel notes, ripe fruits like raspberry, plum and currants, and exotic spices like clove, allspice, and cinnamon transferred from the wine right into the sauce. The wine is simmered down in the cast iron skillet until all of the incredible flavors are concentrated. I chose Terra d’Oro 2015 Zinfandel, their flagship wine crafted from hand-selected grapes from the vineyards in Amador County. I’m very selective with the varietal of wine to complement the flavors of the beef. Now for the fun part! Open up that bottle of red wine if you haven’t uncorked it already and get ready to add some to the sauce. Don’t let it go to waste! A simple red wine reduction can be made into a delicious sauce by sauteing garlic and shallots. There are tons of flavors created in the pan while searing steak. This process allows the juices to redistribute inside the steak evenly. Resting: After about 10 minutes, the meat temperature should increase by about 5 degrees after resting from carryover cooking.After searing the steaks, target 120 to 125✯ (49 to 52✬) for medium-rare, or 130 (50✬) for medium. Temperature: Using a digital meat thermometer after baking, target an internal temperature of 90 to 95✯ (32 to 35✬) for medium-rare or 100 to 105✯ (38 to 41✬) for medium.

Cooking: Traditional methods use a pan-frying technique, however after being introduced to the reverse searing method and testing it out, it’s my preferred way to cook a high-quality piece of steak.This will ensure the right doneness in the center and prevent overcooking. Thickness: Buy ribeye steaks that are at least 1 1/2 to 2-inches thick for the best cooking results using the reverse searing method.Otherwise, USDA choice will have a pleasant taste as well.

I recommend USDA prime if the budget allows, as it has the most abundant marbling.
