More tips on cooking steaks

Just watched a video in ieatishootipost.sg on cooking steaks. 

Key takeaways on top of my previous entry on steaks:

1) Before cooking the steak, let the steak approach room temperature. (Doesn't this allow bacteria to grow? hmm... I think I will let the meat rest for a while after taking it out from the fridge, but not till room temperature)

2) Season it with olive oil first, then add sea salt, pepper, and some lemon juice.

3) When the sides start to get cooked, it's time to turn the steak.

4) After it is cooked, wrap the steak in aluminum foil and let it rest for a while again. This will let the steak get cooked evenly such that the insides will become uniformly pink, instead of pink and red.
