Can you cook steak on an electric stove?
Chef's answer
Make sure to preheat the skillet first before cooking the steak. It will give the steak a good char or sear. It usually takes three to four minutes to preheat the pan on a stove, but it may take eight minutes for an electric stove. Remember to keep the oil in heat that it should be near smoking.

Baked burgers are a great, nearly hands-off cooking method that won't fill your kitchen with the smell of frying beef. Pan-fried burgers, on the other hand, have the benefit of a tasty sear from the cast-iron skillet. And, if it's hot out, cooking burgers on the stove-top won't heat your house as baking burgers will.
