Ingredients

• 2 beefs top sirloin steaks , 6 ounce
• 2 cups orange juice

Instructions

1. 1

   Gather all ingredients.

2. 2

   Place steaks side by side in large casserole dish. Add orange juice, cider vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce. Marinate, uncovered, in the refrigerator for 45 minutes.

3. 3

   Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Remove casserole dish from refrigerator. Cover steaks with plastic wrap and let allow to come to room temperature, at least 15 minutes.

4. 4

   Place steaks on a clean work surface and generously rub with steak seasoning and black pepper.

5. 5

   Heat olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over high heat. Cook steaks in the hot skillet until lightly browned on the bottom, 2 ½ minutes.

6. 6

   Flip and cook until browned on the other side and red in the center, about 2 minutes more. Transfer skillet with the steaks to the oven.

7. 7

   Bake in the preheated oven until steaks are firm and reddish-pink to lightly pink in the center, 8 to 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read from 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) to 140 degrees F (60 degrees C).

   Remove steaks from oven; season with salt. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
