Oven Cooked Tri Tip

Course Main Course

Ingredients
  

  • 2-3 lbs tri tip steak
  • salt, to taste
  • 1-2 tbsp olive oil
  • ground black pepper and other seasonings (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Season the steak with salt on all sides and leave it at room temperature for 30-45 minutes. When you have about 10 minutes left, preheat the broiler to 500 degrees
  • Brush olive oil on all sides of the steak or roast. Then, season with your choice of herbs and spices, like black pepper, garlic powder, or steak seasoning
  • Move the steak to a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil and transfer it to the oven directly under the broiler. Cook for 2 minutes on each side until browned, flipping only once
  • Lower the oven temperature to 400 degrees. Move the baking sheet to the middle rack and continue cooking the steak for another 10-15 minutes for medium-rare. You may need an extra 3-5 minutes for each higher doneness level. Use a digital thermometer to check the temperature before removing the steak from the oven
  • Rest at room temperature for 5-10 minutes on a plate loosely tented with foil before slicing and serving
