👩‍🍳 Directions

Step 1: Prepare the Steaks
Remove the steaks from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before cooking so they come to room temperature. Pat dry with paper towels, then season both sides generously with salt and pepper.

Step 2: Sear the Steaks
Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet (cast iron works best) over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter. Once the butter is sizzling, carefully add the steaks.
Cook for 4–5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness. Transfer the steaks to a plate once done.

Step 3: Let the Steaks Rest
Tent the steaks loosely with foil and allow them to rest for 5–10 minutes while you prepare the sauce.

Step 4: Make the Creamy Garlic Sauce
Lower the heat to medium and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter to the same skillet. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant — be careful not to let it brown.
Pour in the beef broth and use a spatula to scrape up any flavorful bits from the bottom of the pan. Stir in the heavy cream, Parmesan, and Italian seasoning. Let the sauce simmer gently until it thickens and turns creamy.

Step 5: Combine and Reheat
Return the rested steaks to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them. Let them warm in the sauce for a minute or two to soak up all the flavor.

Step 6: Serve and Garnish
Transfer the steaks to plates, drizzle with the rich garlic sauce, and top with chopped fresh parsley. Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
