Do you have a cast iron pan? Or something that can go from stovetop to oven and take really high heat? I use Alton Brown's method, which turns out a fantastic steak (last time, DH said it was better than BBQ'd):

1 boneless rib-eye steak, 1-1/2 inches thick
Canola oil to coat
Kosher salt and ground black pepper

Place 10 - 12-inch cast iron skillet in oven and heat oven to 500 degrees. Bring steak to room temperature.

When oven reaches 500, remove pan (don't forget the oven gloves) and place on range over high heat. Coat steak lightly with oil and season both sides with salt and pepper.

Immediately place steak in the middle of hot, dry pan. Cook 30 seconds without moving. Turn with tongs and cook another 30 seconds, then put the pan straight into the oven for 2 minutes. Flip steak and cook for another 2 minutes (this is for medium rare, if you prefer medium add a minute to both of the oven turns).

Remove steak form pan, cover loosely with foil, and rest for 2 minutes. Serve whole or slice thin and fan onto plate.

Serve it with a big salad, or grilled veggies.

I like to marinade my steak overnight to make it nice and tender, usually I do something simple like a balsamic and worchestire sauce and chopped onion mixed together. I put the steak in this overnight (wrapped up) and the next day I toss on some grill mates steak seasoning at least 10-20 minutes before I start to grill it, I let my steak warm up to room temperate also after I add the seasoning. This is also usually 10-20 minutes, if the steak is cold it'll take longer to cook.

I heat up my grill to very high heat (I have an on the stove grill plate), when it gets hot I throw the steak on, and cook until the pink is about halfway up the side, then I turn the steak and let the other side finish cooking. (Don't turn back and forth that just makes it take longer. It should be 3-6 minutes per side depending on how much you want it cooked and how thick your steak is, my steaks are usually medium well.

You can look online for guides for the thickness of your steak plus how well you want it done if you don't want any pink- but personally a little pink doesn't bother me.
