Cooking Minecraft Food IN REAL LIFE with @NickDiGiovanni

Ingredients

• 8 oz Beef Steak (Ribeye or Sirloin) (per steak, room temperature)
• 1 tsp Kosher Salt (for seasoning)
• ½ tsp Freshly Ground Black Pepper (for seasoning)
• 1 tbsp Olive Oil (high smoke‑point oil for searing)
• 2 cup Water (for boiling (as referenced in video))

Instructions

1. Boil Water

   Fill a saucepan with 2 cups of water and bring to a rolling boil. This mirrors the "boiled water" reference in the video and can be used to quickly pre‑heat the skillet if desired.

   Time: PT2M

   Temperature: 100°C

2. Season the Steaks

   Pat the steaks dry with paper towels, then sprinkle both sides evenly with salt and pepper.

   Time: PT3M

3. Preheat Skillet

   Place the heavy‑bottom skillet over medium‑high heat and add 1 tbsp olive oil. Heat until the oil shimmers.

   Time: PT2M

   Temperature: medium‑high

4. Sear the Steaks

   Using tongs, lay the steaks in the skillet away from you. Sear 3 minutes on the first side without moving, then flip and sear another 3 minutes for medium‑rare. Adjust time 1‑2 minutes per side for desired doneness.

   Time: PT6M

   Temperature: high

5. Rest the Meat

   Transfer the steaks to a plate and loosely cover with foil. Let rest for 5 minutes so juices redistribute.

   Time: PT5M

6. Slice and Serve

   Slice the steak against the grain into bite‑size pieces to mimic the pixelated Minecraft look. Arrange on a serving plate and enjoy.

   Time: PT2M
