When you start the cooking process, you should start by heating a nonstick surface skillet over medium heat until it reaches a high temperature. You can test the temperature of the pan by dropping a few drops of water on it. If water droplets form into small balls and rush quickly, the pan is ready to start cooking.

After adjusting the temperature of the pan, add a little oil or butter to the pan and leave until completely dissolved and starts to burn slightly. Heating oil or butter helps to form a crispy crust layer on the surface of the meat and to secure juiciness inside.

Next, gently place the marinated slice in the preheated pan and leave it for a few minutes, without touching or moving it. This will allow the slice to form a perfectly crispy crust and will preserve its rich flavor and internal juiciness.

When the slice has acquired a golden color and an appropriate amount of hardness on the surface, gently stir it with tongs or a tablespoon. Allow the other side of the slice to brown for a similar duration and acquire a seductive color.

Don't forget to monitor the slice regularly to ensure it doesn't burn, cooking times may vary depending on the thickness of the slice and personal cooking preferences.

Once the slice is cooked perfectly and the desired consistency has been achieved, transfer it to a serving plate and let it rest for a few minutes before cutting and serving. This will allow the meat juicers to distribute evenly within the steak and this will result in a hearty and moist piece of meat.
