Instructions
- Preheat the grill to high heat, about 450°F to 500°F (230°C to 260°C).
- In a small bowl, mix together the paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt to create a seasoning blend.
- Brush both sides of the steaks with olive oil, ensuring an even coating.
- Generously season both sides of the steaks with the spice mix, pressing it into the meat to enhance the flavor.
- Place the steaks on the hot grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting the time according to your preferred doneness (3-4 minutes for rare, 5-6 minutes for medium, and 6-7 minutes for well-done).
- Once cooked to your liking, remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute for a tender bite.
- Slice the steaks against the grain and serve hot, optionally with a sprinkle of fresh herbs for an added touch.
Tips
- For added flavor, consider marinating the steak in your favorite marinade for at least an hour before grilling.
- Experiment with different cuts of steak to find your favorite flavor and tenderness.
- For a smoky flavor, add wood chips to your grill or use a charcoal grill.
