Drizzle olive oil on the steaks to help the seasoning adhere when grilling.

4

Preheat the grill, ensuring it is not too hot to avoid burning the meat.

5

Grill the steaks, monitoring closely due to the heat level.

6

Prepare the parmesan cheese while the steaks are grilling.

7

Make a slit in the steak to insert the parmesan, ensuring it is not too rare to avoid a bloody taste from the cheese.

8

Return the steaks to the grill to melt the parmesan and finish cooking.
