- Heat the Skillet: Preheat your skillet over medium-high heat and place the sirloin in the center using tongs.
- Cook the Beef: Cook for about 2 minutes per side for rare, or 3 minutes for medium-rare, achieving a golden crust outside and a pink center.
- Rest and Slice: Once cooked, remove the beef from the heat and let it rest on a cutting board. Slice it into thin pieces across the grain.
- Serve: After slicing the beef, season with a pinch of salt and some black pepper. Enjoy it warm, drizzled with its cooking juices. You can accompany it with a side of arugula and cherry tomato salad, optionally topped with Parmesan shavings and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar.Parmesan shavings
Notes
- Cherry Tomatoes are common in the U.S. If unavailable, grape tomatoes make a good substitute.
- If authentic Parmigiano-Reggiano is not available, look for domestically produced Parmesan. For a closer alternative, try aged Asiago or Grana Padano. Opt for blocks and shave them yourself for the freshest taste and best presentation.
