Default Bachelor Steak recipe to share

I'm a bachelor. I like cooking simple things that taste good and that are
good for me. Enough for intros. Here's a healthy non-greasy recipe for steak
that will knock your socks off. Best served, naturally, with a potato
"baked" in the microwave for 8 minutes or so.

Here's how I cook steak. Put pan on stove and heat at 3/4 heat (more if you
have a weak stove). DO NOT APPLY GREASE at any point. After pan is hot (drip
a drop of water in pan..if it sizzles it's hot enough) put a cut in pan (any
cut, preferably ribeye and well marbled which is best, but T-bone is good
too). Put top on pan. Let cook for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes examine
steak...if steak is now "grey" on top, sprinkle generously with garlic salt
and ground course pepper and turn steak (be careful...fat renderings can
burn). *NOTE* If steak is not yet grey on top, put top on and continue
until it is.

Wait 10 more minutes...examine steak. Peek at bottom of steak...if dark
brown/black, generously apply garlic salt and pepper to top of steak (if not
keep cooking until dark brown/black on botton before proceeding) and turn
steak and let sear another 3 minutes.

Serve. Steak should be welldone on the outside, and juicy on the inside.
Increase cooking times for thicker steaks. The garlic salt and pepper glazes
nicely and mixes well with the steak. If the recipe is too salty for you ,
simply don't add garlic salt after flipping the steak the first time. This
steak will be, tastewise, almost identical to OUTBACK's welldone steaks.
Enjoy. As a plus, the pan is SUPEREASY to clean. Simply run water in pan
while the pan is still hot, and scrape pan with the spatula you used. After
that the dishwasher works nicely and pot will come out clean as a hound's
tooth.
