   Place the steak on a wire rack on top of a baking sheet.

   Bake for 35 minutes.

5. 5

   Heat the canola oil in a skillet or stainless steel pan over high heat until smoking.

6. 6

   Sear the steak on one side for 30 seconds, then flip.

7. 7

   Immediately, add the butter, thyme, rosemary, and garlic, swirling the pan to melt the butter quickly.

8. 8

   Place the herbs and garlic on top of the steak, and push the steak toward the top of the pan.

9. 9

   Tilt the pan toward you to pool the butter near the bottom.

    Using a spoon, continuously scoop the butter over the top of the steak for about 30–45 seconds.

    The fleshy area below the thumb should feel how rare steak feels pressing the surface of the steak.

    For medium, touch your fourth finger to your thumb.
