Ingredients
1
striploin steak
2
tsp
coarse salt
1
tsp
coarse black pepper
1
tbsp
oil
2
tbsp
butter
Instructions
Generously season all sides of the steak with the salt and pepper. Place on a plate and let rest for one hour.
Heat oil in a frying pan over medium high heat.
Pat the steak dry with a paper towel. Place the steak in the frying pan and cook for 4-5 minutes.
Use tongs to flip the steak over to the other side. A seared crust should have developed on the cooked side of the steak.
Continue cooking for 3-4 more minutes.
Add the butter to the pan and lower heat to medium.
Continually spoon the melted butter over the steak. After a minute or two, turn again and keep basting with the melted butter.
Cook until it reached a desired level of doneness.
