Ingredients
Flat Iron steaks
Cooking oil for the skillet
2 tbsp/ 8 grams whole mustard seeds
1 tbsp/ 4 grams whole coriander seeds
1 tsp whole cumin seeds
1 tsp red pepper flakes
55 grams brown sugar
40 grams paprika
35 grams salt
1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
2 tbsp/ 8 grams garlic powder
1 tbsp/ 4 grams dried oregano
Instructions
Prepare the spice rub by adding the mustard seeds, coriander seeds, cumin seeds, and red pepper flakes to a coffee grinder. Grind into a fine powder, then combine with all of the other ingredients and set aside.
Take the thawed steaks out of their package and pat dry with a paper towel.
Sprinkle the spice rub on all sides of the steaks and pat to coat evenly.
Preheat a large skillet on medium high heat.
Add 2 tbsp cooking oil to the pan. Once oil is hot, add the steaks. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, keeping a close eye on them. You want each side to be nicely browned but not overdone.
Remove the steaks from the pan and place on a plate to rest for 3 minutes before serving.
