First, allow the steak to rest outside of the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before cooking to bring it to room temperature. This crucial step ensures even cooking of the steak.

Then, generously season the steak by sprinkling a generous amount of salt and pepper on both sides, ensuring even coverage.

After that, heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat or use two pans if cooking two slices of steak.
Step 4
Sear the steak in the skillet for 2-3 minutes on each side over medium-high heat, adjusting for desired doneness. A 3cm thick steak should take about 5 minutes. Use a meat thermometer for internal temperatures: 50°C for rare, 60°C for medium, and 70°C for well-done.

After flipping the steak once, add the butter, thyme, and crushed garlic (with its skin) to the pan. Stir and cook for one minute, allowing the flavors to infuse into the steak.
