Instructions
- Step 1: Pat steaks dry with paper towels, then rub both sides with 1 tbsp olive oil. Season generously with 1 tsp coarse sea salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper, pressing to adhere.
- Step 2: In a small bowl, mix chopped rosemary, thyme, minced garlic, and Dijon mustard until a paste forms. Spread this paste evenly over both sides of each steak.
- Step 3: Heat remaining 1 tbsp olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over high heat until shimmering (about 2 minutes). Place steaks in skillet and sear undisturbed for 3 minutes until deep brown crust forms.
- Step 4: Flip steaks, reduce heat to medium, and cook for 4 minutes for medium-rare. Transfer skillet to oven and bake at 400°F for 6 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 125°F.
- Step 5: Rest steaks on a cutting board for 10 minutes, then slice against the grain and serve with the pan juices.
