In this step you will be preheating the oven to 450 degrees. We will be finishing to cook the steak in here later and it needs to reach 450 degrees Fahrenheit.

You will also need to heat up your cast iron skillet. One way to test if it is hot enough is to place hand about a foot above from cast iron and if it feels warm do a water test. The water test entails of pouring a small amount of water and if it evaporates the cast iron is hot enough.

Caution: Do not touch the cast iron skillet directly. Doing so could cause injury or burns.
