Lay steak in the pan and fry, undisturbed, on one side for 2-3 minutes. Flip over and fry on the other side for another 2-3 minutes. Cook a little less for rare or a little more for well done. Remove the steak and allow to rest on a warm plate covered in foil.
- Add the shallots to the frying pan and fry for a few minutes over medium-high heat until they begin to soften and caramelize. Remove to a plate and keep warm.
- Lay the ciabatta roll in the frying pan and toaste lightly for a minute or two.
