Steps:

• Heat the oven to 500°F.
• Sprinkle the steaks with salt on both sides, and then press the ground peppercorns into the steaks on both sides.
• Set a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and add just enough olive oil to make a light film.
• When the oil is very hot, add the steaks, cooking until nicely browned on one side, about 3 minute.
• (If the pan is small, work in batches.) Flip the meat over and put the skillet in the oven.
• For medium-rare steaks, roast for 3 minutes for 6-ounce steaks; 4 minutes for 8-ounce steaks.
• Check for doneness with the tip of a knife or by pressing with your fingertips, keeping in mind that the steaks will cook a bit more as they sit.
• Transfer the steaks to a warm plate and tent with foil.
• With a spoon, remove any fat from the skillet.
• Put the skillet back on the burner and heat to medium high.
• Add the wine and cook until it's reduced to 1/4 cup, about 7 minutes, scraping up the browned bits with a wooden spoon. REMOVE PAN FROM THE HEAT.
• Whisk in the butter a slice at a time, whisking until completely melted.
• Taste and adjust the seasonings, drizzle the sauce over the steaks, and serve immediately with more sauce on the side.
• Variations: add shallots to the pan sauce, finish with chopped parsley.
• substitute 4 tbl cognac and 1/2 cup dark stock in place of the wine.
• substitute 1/4 cup cream and 1/4 cup cognac for the wine- reduce slightly to thicken.
