Heat the Pan
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.

Sear the Steaks
Add the steaks to the hot skillet and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium rare, or longer depending on your preferred doneness.

Add Butter and Aromatics
During the last 2 minutes of cooking, add the butter, garlic cloves, and rosemary to the pan. Spoon the melted butter over the steaks as they finish cooking.
