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

  1. Season Steaks: Season the ribeye steaks evenly with salt and pepper on both sides to enhance their natural flavors.
  2. Heat Skillet and Butter: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of butter, allowing it to melt and bubble.
  3. Cook Steaks (First Side): Place steaks in the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes without moving to develop a golden-brown crust.
  4. Flip and Add Butter & Garlic: Flip steaks using tongs, add remaining 2 tablespoons butter and minced garlic to the skillet, and cook another 4-5 minutes for a medium-rare finish.
  5. Rest Steaks: Remove steaks from skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes to retain juices.
  6. Prepare Parmesan Cream Sauce: Reduce heat to medium, add heavy cream to the skillet, whisking continuously to deglaze and incorporate browned bits.
  7. Incorporate Parmesan: Add grated Parmesan cheese and whisk until sauce thickens, about 3-4 minutes.
  8. Season Sauce: Taste and adjust salt and pepper as needed for perfect seasoning.
  9. Serve: Slice steaks, plate, drizzle with Parmesan cream sauce, and garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a visually appealing presentation.
