  • Cuisine: American

Ingredients

  • 2 ribeye or sirloin steaks
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Season both sides of the steak with salt and black pepper.
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  3. Sear steak for 3–4 minutes per side or until desired doneness. Remove and let rest.
  4. Reduce heat to medium. Melt butter in the same skillet and sauté garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  5. Add heavy cream and stir. Simmer gently for a few minutes.
  6. Stir in Parmesan cheese and cook until the sauce thickens.
  7. Return steak to skillet, spoon sauce over, and heat through.
  8. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Add mushrooms to the sauce for more depth.
  • Sprinkle red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
  • Use coconut milk and skip cheese for a dairy-free option.
  • Double the sauce for larger servings or pasta pairing.
  • Use a meat thermometer to achieve perfect doneness.
