Step 0
Remove steaks from cooking bags. Pat with a paper towel. Melt the butter and oil in the skillet on medium high heat. Wait for the sizzle. I added sliced mushrooms to the skillet for a topping on the steaks . I prefer iron skillet. When the butter starts to sizzle and turn brown place the steak in the skillet and begin to baste with a spoon the entire time. For 1 inch steaks no more than 1 minute /side. I decided to fry up some sliced porcini mushrooms prior to searing the steaks first for a topping. Your can also do this with onions . Then add the steaks.

Step 1
Take the steaks out and let rest for 5 minutes before cutting to retain all the juices. If you have any left over garlic /oil drop some on top of the steak while resting and a small pad of garlic butter. Ready to serve.
