oven at 400( bake, not broil). pop the skillet in there to get it hot. room temp steaks.
pull hot pan out, set it over hot stove top. if you oil, salt/pepper the steaks, and dont add oil to the pan, there is alot less spatter. crack open a window, and get the hood vent on high. i sear it until brown both sides. once in the pan, dont touch em. flip after 3 minutes.
then pop the entire (oven safe) pan in the oven. maybe 5-8 mins depending on thickness. i have a probe instant read thermometer, so i cheat. i cant hit med rare by luck.
let the meat rest before eating or slicing. i put them on a plate with criss-cross chopsticks to keep the meat out of the juices. great time to ponder a pan sauce with all the crunchy bits stuck to the pan. (tiny bit of water, cognac, and some heavy cream..lots of pepper)
disclaimer: my stove top and oven SUCK! so your cook times may vary.
