Ingredients
- 200g Steak (your choice of cut)
- 50g Mozzarella Cheese, sliced
- 1 tablespoon Chopped Parsley
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon Soy Sauce
- 1 teaspoon Mirin (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable Oil
Instructions
- Prepare the Steak: Season the steak with salt and pepper on both sides. If you prefer, marinate it in a mixture of soy sauce and mirin for 15-30 minutes for extra flavor.
- Heat the Pan: In a skillet or frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.
- Cook the Steak: Add the steak to the hot pan and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer if you prefer your steak more well done. Adjust the cooking time based on the thickness of the steak.
- Add Cheese: Once the steak is cooked to your liking, place the sliced mozzarella cheese on top of the steak. Cover the pan with a lid for about 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese melts.
- Garnish: Remove the steak from the pan and let it rest for a minute. Sprinkle the chopped parsley on top for a fresh touch.
- Serve: Slice the steak and serve it on a plate, drizzling any remaining pan juices over the top for added flavor.
