I changed oil and forgot to put new filter into the filter holder. I drained out new oil into a pan. After I finished to insert new filter. I poured back new oil into my car. I didn't start my car during the process. Is it OK to use new oil

First - you did NOT have to drain the 'engine oil' from the oil pan to replace the oil filter! .. 'IF' the oil IS clean - with NO trash or other debris in it - it is ok to use the oil.
make sure the drain pan was not dirty before the oil change. if it was clean then reuse it.
You are right. After I drain out the new oil and took out the filter holder, I realized I don't have to drain the new oil since I didn't start the engine. Thank you for your answer.
