Easiest way to cook steak?

I bough my parents a steak and lobster dinner for Christmas- and I am preparing it for them. What is the easiest way for a teenager to cook steak and lobster-please give step by step instructions including what to give them so they can eat the lobster....i.e. how will they get the meat out? any butter sauce? thanks so much!Easiest way to cook steak?
Applause to YOU for cooking for the parents !! (I hope MY daughters are reading).





Even though I'm a GREAT fan of grilling, the EASIEST way to do a steak is in a good cast-iron (or very heavy aluminum) skillet.





Remove the steaks from the fridge and let them come to room temperature, season as you wish (I just sprinkle with a touch of salt, a heavy dose of black pepper, and a splash of Worcestershire). Heat the skillet until it's almost smoking, turn down to medium-high heat and at a tsp of olive oil, veggie oil, or butter. Toss in those steaks and don't touch them for 4 minutes... flip them once and pan-fry for another 4-5 minutes. Plate them and let them rest for 3-4 minutes so the juices settle back to their interior.





The Lobster... before starting the steaks, get a large pot of water boiling, and drop them on in... cook them per these directions: http://www.poollobster.com/cook-eat-boil鈥?/a>





LOOK at the cooking times and try to time the two to come complete within a minute or two.





Yes, I'd serve with melted butter... a baked potato, and perhaps some nice steamed or stir-fried veggies.Easiest way to cook steak?

grab a few spices that you like (like garlic lovers garlic) and have them at hand. you are going to use a stove top. It's the easiest way. I cook steak all the time and I just turned 13. Depending on how your parents like the steak, cook it until all the blood is gone (unless they want it medium rare or rare) and it looks nice and brown(don't worry if the steak is orange-ish, it's just the spices). Before you put the steak on, put butter or veggie oil on the pan. not too much, just enough to THINLY cover the pan. remember, too little is better than too much. Otherwise, this will literally be painful. cook at about 5-7 and put the steak on. put the spices on top of the steak and after about 3 minutes turn the steak over. put just a little salt on the bottom of the steak. turn it over in 3 minutes. do this about 2 times. Then, voila! It's done.
The easiest way to cook steak is to cook it in the oven. Just put the steak in a pan and season it with your choice of seasoning .. and cook it at 350. That is so simple. If you want to grill the steak -- just get the grill going .. season the steak .. then put the steak on the grill .. check on the steak frequently and turn it, too.
Easiest way is to broil it in the oven, it's also the fastest.
