Method
Preparation
- Take the steaks out of the refrigerator and pat them dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until it’s shimmering.
Cooking
- Add the steaks to the hot skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes on one side without moving them, until a golden crust forms.
- Flip the steaks and cook for another 3-4 minutes for medium-rare, adjusting the time if you prefer your steak cooked longer.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter and minced garlic to the pan. Baste the steaks with the melted garlic butter for additional flavor.
- Cook for about 1 minute.
- Remove the steaks and let them rest on a cutting board. In the same pan, add the heavy cream and bring it to a gentle simmer.
- Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until it melts and the sauce thickens.
- Slice the steak against the grain and place it on a plate. Pour the creamy garlic sauce over the steak. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
Notes
For best results, choose quality meat and avoid overcrowding the pan while cooking. Let steaks rest before slicing to retain juices. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
