I use the same method pretty much... Cast iron skillet in oven at 550 or your hottest temp. Take the pan out and put on the big stove burner to sear with butter, then 5 minutes in oven for the normal inch or so thick steak.

Open the oven and check with your finger, but leave some room for it to cook as it rests for 5 minutes before serving.
