Season the steak

• Pat the steak dry and season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Sear the steak

• Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over high heat until smoking.
• Lay the steak in the pan and sear undisturbed until a deep crust forms, then flip and sear the other side.

Baste with butter, garlic and herbs

• Lower the heat, add the butter, crushed garlic, rosemary and thyme to the pan.
• Tilt the pan and spoon the foaming butter continuously over the steak to baste it.

Rest and serve

• Transfer the steak to a board and let it rest before slicing.
• Slice against the grain and spoon the pan butter over the slices.
