You can pan sear it or oven sear/roast it.
For either you need a heavy frying pan ..a cast iron pan is even better.
To pan sear, you heat a couple of tablespoons of oil in the pan on medium-high heat. Put the steak on the pan, moving it frequently so that it doesn't stick. It'll take 5/6 minutes per side When it is crusty but not charred on the outside, take it off the pan and wrap it in aluminum foil for about 8 minutes.
To oven sear/roast, set your oven to 500 degrees. You need an oven-proof skillet or a cast iron one. Heat the pan in the oven. When the oven is at 500degrees, remove the pan from the oven and put it on the stove top with the burner on high. Put the steak on the hot pan, flip after a minute or so, cook for another minute or so, then put the pan with steak on it back in the hot oven. Roast it in the oven for 3 or 4 minutes, remove it and wrap it in aluminum foil for another 5 minutes to let it rest.
