1
Place the steak in a bowl or resealable plastic bag with all the remaining ingredients. Toss to coat evenly, cover, and let marinate for at least 15 minutes or up to overnight.
2
Heat a cast-iron skillet over high heat until very hot. Add the steak, reserving the marinade for later. Sear undisturbed for 1-2 minutes per side to get a nice crust. Reduce heat to medium-high and continue cooking for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the steak reaches your preferred doneness (medium-rare is recommended, about 130–135°F / 55–57°C).

Pour the reserved marinade over the steak and cook for 1 more minute. Remove from the skillet, let rest for a few minutes, then slice across the grain and serve.
