How to Cook Bacon Wrapped Steak on the Stove

- 1 tsp butter (unsalted or herb butter)
- Season with salt and black pepper (according to taste)
How to Cook Bacon Wrapped Steak on the Stove – Recipe
Remove the steaks from the refrigerator about half an hour before cooking to allow them to come to room temperature.- Preheat the oven to 475 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Season the sirloin strips with some salt or salt and black pepper.
- Place an uncooked or slightly heated bacon slice around the edge of each sirloin tip and tie it with a cooking string.
- Sprinkle the steaks with black pepper and salt on both sides before cooking. Over low to medium heat, heat up a large oven-safe skillet.
- Whenever the pan is heated (about 1 minute), add some butter and stir it around the skillet to coat it. Add the sirloin to the pan when the butter is sizzling and cook for 3 minutes on each side.
- Put the skillet in the oven and cook until the steaks are cooked to your liking; 5-7 minutes on each side (12 minutes overall cook time) should provide a lovely medium-rare sirloin.
- You can use a meat thermometer to check the doneness. The thickest section of the meat should read around 130°F for a succulent medium-rare temperature.
- Take the steaks out of the oven and place them on a clean dish. Cover with tin foil and allow for 8-10 minutes of resting time. Cut the cooking string from the steaks and serve.
