Use paper towels to pat dry the steaks, then sprinkle salt and pepper. Rub each until well coated.
In the empty pan, add 2 tbsp of butter and a tbsp of oil. Allow them to become hot.
Add the steaks and cook each side for about 5 minutes or until cooked to your preference. Transfer the steaks to the plate with the veggies.
