Italians like to marinade a steak before either pan frying, grilling, or broiling it. I like this marinade: Salt, freshly ground black pepper, whole black pepper corns, lemon juice, lemon slices, garlic cloves lightly crushed, bay leaves, a few sprigs of fresh oregano, extra-virgin olive oil. Well mixed, let it sit well covered by the marinade for a few hours. Delicious.
