In a small bowl, whisk 2 tbsp oil, lemon juice, worcestershire sauce, mustard and a generous pinch of salt. Season both sides of the steak with salt and pepper.

In a 10" skillet, heat the remaining 1 tbsp oil over medium high heat until hot. Cook the steak, without disturbing, until the steak of deeply browned. Flip and cook other side. Transfer to a cutting board.

Turn the heat to low and cook the shallots, stirring frequently, until softened and lightly browned, 5-8 mins. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly.
