how long do you bake a steak if you want it well done
Sear each side of the steak in the pan for 2 â 5 minutes; peek underneath to know when to flip. You want it brown but not black (i.e., burnt). If you like your steak rare to medium rare, you can often stop here. Just check the internal temperature of the steak with your meat thermometer (see above). If you like your steak medium to well done, put it in the oven on a small rack over a baking sheet lined with tinfoil to roast for another 5-15 minutes. (Again, with the meat thermometer, youâll know exactly when to take it out.)
