I'm eating a lot of buffalo lately because it's much higher in iron than beef. Heme iron from meat is more readily absorbed than iron supplements or iron from veggies, so I include a lot of red meat in my diet. Buffalo is a very healthy red meat.
Yesterday I needed an iron boost, so I bought a bison ribeye. I took my cast-iron skillet, melted some butter, and placed the steak into the melted butter (after rinsing the meat, of course). I topped the steak with organic roasted garlic out of a jar. I cooked for 5-6 min., flipped, then 5-6 min. more.
I cooked mine on the floor of the 450 degree oven to avoid having to clean up splatters on the stove-top, but it can also be cooked on med. heat on a regular stove.
It was perfectly med. rare and tasted GREAT!!!! I had a glass of Layer Cake shiraz with the steak and some dark chocolate for dessert.
I made buffalo chili for the kids (same as last time, so the recipe is already posted), and hubby was out of town. I had the leftover chili for lunch, ti was great, too!!!
