Firstly, you need to dry the steak with a paper towel. Because if you want a really good sear, then you have to dry the cut as much as you can. Make sure you take the steak out from the fridge 20 minutes before you start cooking.

After that, heat the frying pan until it’s very hot but not smoking.
Now drizzle some oil on the pan and leave it for a moment. Once the oil is shimmering, add your steak in the pan. The steak needs few minutes undisturbed to develop a brown crust. It usually takes 3 to 4 minutes to get a brown crust on the steak.
Evenly sear each side of the steak. Add crushed garlic to the pan to give a nice flavor to your steak.
After that, add thyme and little knobs of butter to the pan.
If you have a meat thermometer, then you can use it to check if the temperature is according to your liking or not. Use the aforementioned ‘steak doneness chart’ to check your steak.
