Is it safe to recook partially cooked steak the next day? - Grilled Meat on Brown Wooden Chopping Board

I prepared one steak too many yesterday.

One of the steaks went into the oven (from about room temperature) for 7 minutes, but then we never pan seared it after.

We let it cool, and it's been in the fridge.

Is it safe now to fully cook the partially cooked steak? I'm not sure that the 7 minutes did much to "cook" it (at 370)

If so, what's the best way to now cook it?

Thanks!



Best Answer

you can reheat it in a frying pan, or... if it's not raw inside, slice it for steak salad or sandwiches. not bad.
