Take the steak out. Put it on a cutting board. Let it rest for 5 minutes. Seriously, walk away. If you cut into it immediately, all those juicy juices will run out onto the plate like a sad river. Resting lets them redistribute so every bite stays tender. Think of it as the steak’s deep-breathing moment after a workout.
While it rests, you can sauté some mushrooms or make a quick salad. Or just stare at the steak in admiration. No judgment.
