Preparation

Step 1

Pat steaks dry and sprinkle both sides with salt and pepper.

Heat 1 tablespoon butter and oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately-high heat until hot but not smoking, then saute steaks 3 minutes per side for medium. Transfer steaks with tongs to a plate and keep warm, loosely covered.

Add remaining 2 tablespoons butter to skillet and cook shallot over moderate heat, stirring, until softened, about 2 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and carefully add wine and any meat juices that have accumulated on plate with steaks. Simmer until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in herbs and salt and pepper, to taste.

Pour sauce over steaks and serve.
