Preparation:
1. Prep the Steak: Season the steaks generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
2. Sear the Steak: Heat olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over high heat until smoking. Add the steaks and sear for 2-3 minutes per side for medium-rare.
3. Rest the Steak: Transfer the steaks to a plate and let them rest for 5-10 minutes.

5. Combine the Flavors: Stir in the parsley, cilantro, lemon juice, lemon zest, red pepper flakes, and beef broth. Bring to a simmer and cook until the sauce thickens slightly.
6. Plate and Serve: Slice the steaks and top with the flavorful sauce. Serve immediately with your choice of side dishes, such as roasted potatoes, grilled asparagus, or a fresh green salad.
