After flipping the steak for the first time, add the butter, thyme, and garlic, and stir for 1 minute. To do this, tilt the pan toward you so that the butter collects at the bottom of the pan, then repeatedly pour the butter over the steak.
Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes. Don’t be tempted to skip this step, it’s essential. Pending cooking process, meat particles stick jointly, so if you cutting steak directly after cooking, all the juices on the board will run out. The resting time allows the particles to relax and reabsorb their fluids, which means you won’t lose those delicious juices when chopping.
Slice the steak, season and serve with your choice of side dishes and sauce.
Enjoy !
