Well, I bought two juicy thick rib eye steaks from the butchers; one for tonight, one for tomorrow, as a bit of a rare treat.

I also bought a high quality teflon coated heavy griddle pan thingy.

So, who has a magic recipie for cooking that perfect steak?

The only oil I have at home is extra virgin olive oil - is this ok?

I plan to season only with salt and pepper.

I also bought an onion as I recall my mum sometimes frying the steak with some onions and that was lovely.

(discliamer - I am NOT a chef - this is a rare venture for me, so keep it simple!)
