Once hot, sear steaks until a golden crust forms, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and sear reverse side, 2-3 minutes more. Transfer to a plate and rest for at least 10 minutes. Slice steak thinly across the grain.Meanwhile, make vinaigrette: In a small bowl, combine vinegar, shallot, mustard and honey. Season with salt and rest for at least 5 minutes.
