Bring Steak to Room TemperatureLet the steaks sit at room temperature for 20–30 minutes before cooking. This ensures even cooking throughout. Season GenerouslyPat steaks dry. Season both sides with salt and pepper. Don’t be shy—this builds your crust. Sear in a Hot PanHeat olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over high heat. Add the steaks and sear for 3–4 minutes per side until a golden crust forms. Add Garlic ButterReduce heat to medium. Add butter, garlic, and herbs to the pan. Tilt the pan and spoon melted butter over the steak continuously for 1–2 minutes. Let It RestRemove steaks from heat and rest for 5–7 minutes. This locks in the juices.
