Rib-Eye with Mustard-Beer Pan Sauce

• 2 boneless rib-eye steaks
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 medium shallot, minced
• 1 cup lager or pilsner beer or chicken broth
• 1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

1. Pat the steaks dry with paper towels and season well salt and freshly ground black pepper.
2. Heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed cast iron skillet over medium-heat until just smoking.
3. Add the steaks and brown well, undisturbed, about 3 to 4 minutes.
4. Flip and repeat until browned, about 3 minutes more for medium-rare.
5. Remove to a cutting board, tent with foil, and let rest for 5 minutes.
6. Meanwhile, return skillet to stove, add the shallots and cook until softened, about 1 minute.
7. Stir in the beer and cook until reduced slightly, about 1 minute.
8. Stir in any accumulated meat juices and mustard.
9. Remove the pan from the heat and add the butter.
10. Swirl the pan to melt the butter or use a whisk to incorporate.
11. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and arrange the steaks on serving plates.
12. Pour the sauce over the steaks and serve immediately.
