How to Make Baked Steak With Pan Gravy
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
- Pat a 1.5-2 lb steak (Ribeye, New York Strip, or Sirloin) completely dry with paper towels.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large, oven-safe skillet (cast iron preferred) over medium-high heat.
- Sear the steak for 2-3 minutes per side, until nicely browned. Season generously with salt and pepper after the first flip.
- Pour 1 cup beef broth into the skillet.
- Bring the broth to a boil, then transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.
- Bake uncovered for 35-40 minutes for medium-rare, or 45 minutes for medium. Use a meat thermometer to ensure desired doneness (130-135°F for medium-rare, 140-145°F for medium).
- Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest on a cutting board for 10 minutes before slicing.
- While the steak rests, prepare the gravy: Pour the pan juices into a small saucepan. Skim off excess fat.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon cornstarch and 2 tablespoons cold water until smooth.
- Bring the pan juices to a simmer over medium heat. Slowly whisk in the cornstarch slurry.
- Continue whisking until the gravy thickens to your desired consistency.
- Season the gravy with salt and pepper to taste.
- Slice the steak against the grain into 1/2-inch thick strips.
- Arrange the steak slices on a serving platter and generously spoon the gravy over the top.
