Pat the steaks dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper or steak seasoning.
Heat an oven proof skillet over medium-high heat for a couple of minutes, then add olive oil. Place the steaks, separated at least 1 inch apart in skillet. Sear on the first side for 3 minutes. Flip and sear the second side for 3 minutes.
Place skillet in oven. Cook for 4 to 8 minutes, depending on the thickness of the steaks and how you want the steaks cooked. When in doubt, insert a meat thermometer into the middle of one steak and monitor the temperature.
Remove the steaks from the skillet and let rest at least 5 minutes before serving.
Optional: as the steak is resting add a small dollop of herbed butter for added flavor restaurant-style.
