1
Season the Beef
Take the beef steak and pat it dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.
2
Optional Marinade
If using the optional marinade, mince the garlic cloves and mix them in a bowl with soy sauce, honey, and lemon juice. Place the seasoned beef in the marinade and let it sit for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.

3
Preheat the Pan
Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and let it heat until shimmering.
4
Sear the Beef
Once the oil is hot, carefully place the beef steak in the pan. Sear for about 4-5 minutes on one side without moving it.
5
Flip the Beef
Using tongs, flip the beef steak and cook for another 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, or longer depending on your desired doneness.
6
Rest the Beef
Remove the beef from the pan and place it on a cutting board. Let it rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing.
7
Garnish
Chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the sliced beef before serving for a fresh touch.
