How to fry meat properly?

Answer
Meat at room temperature (take out 30-60 min before).
Dry meat (pat dry) = crispy crust.
Preheated pan, oil with a high smoke point (refined).
Do not move until a crust forms (3-4 min per side for medium steak).
Rest after frying (5 min) — juices will distribute. Salt before or after — no consensus.
