Heat some oil in a pan. Season the steak generously with salt and pepper.
Once the pan is hot and smoking, place the steak in the pan and cover with a lid.
Add a neutral oil with a high smoke point.
After one minute, move the steak to a different spot in the pan.
Cook for about two minutes, then flip the steak.
Remove the steak from the pan and let it rest.
Add the shallot to the pan and sauté for one minute.
Add crushed garlic, reduce the heat to low, and add a small piece of butter.
Allow the butter to melt and start foaming.
During the last minute of cooking, baste the steak with the butter mixture every 30 seconds, flipping it occasionally.
