  3. Light the grill. Use a paper towel to pat steak dry. (You can leave some of the paste, but for the best sear, the meat should be dry when it hits the grill.)

Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing against the grain and serving, garnished with herbs and scallions.

Crush and tear the rosemary sprigs with your hands to release their perfume. Cover and refrigerate for one to two days.
