Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ribeye steaks (8 oz each)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Season the steaks generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
- Add the steaks and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or to desired doneness. Remove steaks and keep warm.
- Reduce heat to medium and add butter to the skillet. Once melted, add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Pour in the heavy cream and stir, scraping the bottom of the pan to loosen browned bits.
- Add Parmesan cheese and thyme leaves, simmering until the sauce thickens slightly, about 3-5 minutes.
- Return steaks to the pan briefly to coat with sauce and heat through.
- Plate the steaks and spoon the garlic cream sauce over them. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
Notes
For an extra depth of flavor, sear the steaks in a cast-iron skillet and let the sauce reduce a bit longer for a creamier consistency.
