- Let the steak come to room temperature, pat dry on both sides.
- Drizzle olive oil over the steak and use your fingers or a brush to coat the surface. Season thoroughly with sea salt and black pepper.
- Place the cast iron skillet over the stovetop and turn the heat on medium-high.
- Add the seasoned steak to the skillet, don’t overcrowd the skillet. If you’re cooking more steaks than the skillet can handle, cook in batches. Turn heat to medium.
- Sear the steak on one side for about 4 minutes. Turn the steak over and cook for another 4 minutes on that side. At this point, add fresh herbs and garlic to the skillet. Top off the steak with herbed butter. As the butter melts, tilt the skillet and spoon some of the melted butter over the steaks. Turn the heat off.
- Transfer steak to a cutting board and let rest covered for about 10 minutes. Slice against the grain and serve with your favorite sides.
