Usually, I season the steak and then drizzle a little oil into a frying pan. I turn up the heat until the oil is sizzling and then add the steak. I usually use the juices in the pan to make a sauce for the steak too or fry some mushrooms in the steak juices. I used to like my steaks cooked medium to well as I couldn't stand the pinkness and blood. As I have got older, I now prefer my steak medium and love a bit of pink in the middle.
