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

Place the steak in the hot skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes without moving it.

Tilt the pan and use a spoon to baste the steak with the melted butter for another 3-4 minutes for medium-rare, adjusting time for desired doneness.

Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the steak before serving.
