Ingredients
Scale
- 2 steaks (sirloin or ribeye), about 1 inch thick
- 5 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley (optional), chopped for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat Your Equipment: Heat a heavy skillet over medium-high heat until very hot.
- Combine Ingredients: Season steaks with salt and pepper. In a small saucepan, melt butter and sauté garlic over low heat until fragrant. Add heavy cream and let it simmer gently.
- Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: Add olive oil to the hot skillet, swirling to coat the surface.
- Assemble the Dish: Place steaks in the skillet and sear 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove and rest under foil.
- Cook to Perfection: Simmer the garlic cream sauce until thickened. Adjust seasoning to taste.
- Finishing Touches: Slice the steak against the grain and spoon the sauce over the top. Garnish with parsley if using.
- Serve and Enjoy: Pair with your favorite side dishes and enjoy immediately.
Notes
- Use a thermometer for perfect doneness—130°F for medium-rare.
- Let steak rest before slicing to keep it juicy.
- If sauce thickens too much, loosen it with a splash of cream or broth.
- Pair with mashed potatoes, green beans, or crusty bread for a full meal.
