Instructions
- Add the olive oil to a large skillet and heat it over high heat until hot.

Notes
Pat the steak dry before cooking for a better crust. Use a hot pan and avoid stirring too soon to ensure a good sear. Add garlic after the steak to prevent burning. Cook in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan. Red pepper flakes add a nice kick but are optional.
