Critical Success Points

  • Allow the steak to reach room temperature before cooking.
  • Ensure the skillet is properly pre‑heated before adding the steak.
  • Press the steak gently during the first minute to develop a crust.
  • Baste with garlic‑thyme butter at the end of cooking.
  • Rest the steak for at least 5 minutes.

Safety Warnings

  • The skillet will be extremely hot; use oven mitts or a thick towel when handling.
  • Butter can splatter – keep your face away from the pan.
  • Use tongs, not a fork, to flip the steak to avoid piercing and juice loss.
