Lake Michigan's water surface is 22,300 square miles (57,800 square kilometers). It is the second largest of the Great Lakes by volume (1,180 cubic miles / 4,920 cubic km). Only Lake Superior is bigger. Lake Michigan touches Indiana, Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin.
For the first 2 minutes, sear one flat side of the steak. For the next 2 minutes, sear the other flat side. Then, turn the steak onto its side and sear the edges, rotating every 2 minutes until the steak is cooked. Cooked this way, a 2-inch-thick, 8-ounce filet mignon will reach 120Â°F in about 8 minutes.
Don't leave it alone, as it will overcook fast. Cook for 30-90 seconds depending on how hot your pan is. Flip it, add a few drops of the oil again, and pepper it. The hot oil will break out the pepper's flavor. Another 30-90 seconds and you should have a perfect, edge to edge pink, amazingly seared steak.
