Remove steak from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for 30 minutes.

Preheat the grill or skillet over high heat until very hot.

Season the steak generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Add olive oil to the grill or skillet, ensuring it coats the surface.

Place the steak on the grill or skillet and sear for 4-5 minutes without moving it.

Flip the steak and cook for another 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, adjusting time for desired doneness.

While the steak cooks, finely chop shallots and fresh herbs.

In a small bowl, combine butter, shallots, herbs, garlic, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt.

Mix until well combined and set aside at room temperature to soften.

Once the steak reaches desired doneness, remove it from heat and let it rest for 5-10 minutes.

Slice the steak against the grain and serve topped with shallot and herb butter.

Drizzle with red wine vinegar for added flavor.
