Ingredients
  

Steak Ingredients
  • 2 pieces Ribeye or Sirloin steak Choose a fresh cut for the best flavor.
  • 2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter Salted butter can be substituted.
  • 3 cloves Garlic Fresh minced garlic infuses the sauce.
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream The base for the creamy sauce.
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese Freshly grated cheese provides a nutty flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Season to taste.
  • 1 teaspoon Pepper Season to taste.
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Parsley (optional) For garnish.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Pat dry your steak with paper towels, ensuring it’s moisture-free for an ideal sear. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Preheat your cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until it’s hot. Add one tablespoon of butter and let it melt, swirling it to coat the pan.
Cooking
  1. Carefully place the steak in the pan, avoiding overcrowding. Sear for about 4-5 minutes without moving it, allowing for a perfect crust to form. Flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes for medium-rare, adjusting time to your desired doneness.
  2. In the final minutes of cooking, add the minced garlic to the pan, stirring gently to avoid burning.
  3. Remove the steak from the pan and let it rest. Lower the heat and add the heavy cream, stirring to deglaze the pan. Scrape up any flavorful bits stuck to the bottom.
  4. Gradually whisk in the grated Parmesan cheese, ensuring it melts smoothly. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
Serving
  1. Slice the rested steak against the grain, pouring the Parmesan cream sauce over the top. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Pairs well with creamy mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple arugula salad. For bold flavors, a Cabernet Sauvignon complements the dish beautifully.
