Grilled Meat

Ingredients:

– 1 piece of meat (steak, ribeye, filet mignon, etc.)

– 2 tablespoons olive oil

– Salt

– Pepper

– Herbs de Provence or other spices (optional)

– 2 garlic cloves (optional)

Instructions:

**Preparing the Meat:**

– Take the meat out of the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature (about 30 minutes before grilling).

– Generously season both sides of the meat with salt and pepper. You can also add Herbs de Provence or other spices if you like.

– If using garlic, mince the cloves and rub them onto the meat.

**Preparing the Grill:**

– Preheat your grill to high heat. If using a charcoal grill, ensure the coals are hot and evenly distributed.

– Lightly brush the grill grate with olive oil to prevent the meat from sticking.

**Cooking the Meat:**

– Place the meat on the hot grill. Let it cook without moving it for 3 to 5 minutes, depending on the thickness of the meat and your desired level of doneness.

– Flip the meat and cook the other side for another 3 to 5 minutes.

– To check for doneness, use a meat thermometer: 50°C (122°F) for rare, 57°C (135°F) for medium, and 63°C (145°F) for well-done.

**Resting the Meat:**

– Once the meat is cooked to your liking, remove it from the grill and let it rest for 5 to 10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute evenly throughout the meat.
