Turn both the Xbox and the controller on, press the sync button on the controller, then press the sync button on the console. Voila, connected!

Just use a USB-C cable to connect them initially, and they'll pair automatically. After that, you can disconnect the cable and game wirelessly. Easy peasy.

I had to do this last week! Hold the sync button on both the controller and the Xbox Series X at the same time until the lights start flashing and then turn solid. You're good to go!
