Ingredients
Scale
Steak
- 4 pieces ribeye steaks, about 1-inch thick, 8 oz each
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
Parmesan Cream Sauce
- ½ cup heavy cream
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
Instructions
- Season the Steaks: Evenly season the ribeye steaks with salt and pepper on both sides to enhance their natural flavors.
- Heat Skillet and Cook Steaks: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of butter. Once melted and bubbling, place the steaks in the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes without moving for a nice sear.
- Flip and Add Garlic: Turn the steaks over using tongs, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and the minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for another 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, spooning the garlic butter over the steaks as they cook for extra flavor.
- Rest the Steaks: Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a plate for 5 minutes. Resting allows the juices to redistribute for tender, juicy meat.
- Prepare the Parmesan Cream Sauce: Lower the skillet heat to medium and pour in the heavy cream. Whisk continuously, scraping up any browned bits from the pan to incorporate flavor into the sauce.
- Add Parmesan and Thicken: Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and continue whisking until the sauce thickens, about 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve: Slice the rested steaks, plate them, then drizzle the creamy Parmesan sauce over the top. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
Notes
- You can substitute ribeye with sirloin, filet mignon, or any steak cut of your choice.
- Adjust the amount of garlic according to your preference for more or less pungency.
- Serve with steamed vegetables or mashed potatoes to complete your meal.
