2 tbsp grass-fed unsalted butter, divided

For the sauce

2 shallots, finely minced
1 cup low-sodium beef broth
1 tbsp dijon mustard
1 tsp fresh thyme leaves

For serving

1 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
Place the peppercorns in a zip-top bag and crush them with the bottom of a heavy skillet until coarsely cracked — you want a mix of large and small pieces, not a fine powder. Press the crushed pepper firmly onto both sides of each steak, then season both sides with the kosher salt. Let the steaks sit at room temperature for 5 minutes while you prepare the pan.
2
Heat the avocado oil in a 12-inch stainless steel or cast iron skillet over high heat until the oil just begins to smoke. Add the steaks and sear undisturbed for 3–4 minutes, until a deep mahogany crust forms on the underside and the steak releases easily from the pan.
