Steps

40 mins

1

Leave aged steak out on countertop to achieve room temperature.
2

Pre-heat oven heavy ridged non stick pan or cast iron skillet. No oil, just heated up on high heat.
3

As pan is heating up, cover one side of filet with one tbsp of olive oil, same other side
4

Sprinkle salt on top and bottom of steak over the oil.
5

Cover same liberally with cracked black pepper.
6

When skillet is starting to smoke, add t tablespoons of olive oil to the pan. Then immediately place filet sprinkled side down. Get a nice char after about 2—3 minutes. Then flip and do the same for other side.
7

Once char is to your liking, take the whole skillet and place in broiler for 5-8 minutes, depending on the doneness that you want. I like mine medium to medium rare so I leave in for about 6 minutes directly under the broiler flame.
8

Pull the skillet and plate the steak on its serving dish. Do not cut to check for doneness, use time in broiler as your guide.
9

Put the pat or slice of garlic herb butter on top and LET THE STEAK REST FOR 5-6 minutes. Do not cut, let the juices go back to the center. If you cut it, it will be dry.
10

Add sides that you wish and serve.
