This garlic butter steak is draped in a luscious Parmesan cream sauce, turning a simple dinner into an exceptional culinary experience.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 pieces ribeye steaks (about 1-inch thick, 8 oz each)
  • Salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 4 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Season the ribeye steaks evenly with salt and pepper on both sides.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of butter.
  3. Once the butter is melted and bubbling, add the steaks to the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side.
  4. Flip the steaks using tongs, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and the minced garlic to the skillet, and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes for a medium-rare finish.
  5. Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes.
  6. In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium. Add the heavy cream, whisking continuously to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom.
  7. Add the grated Parmesan cheese to the skillet and whisk until the sauce thickens, approximately 3-4 minutes.
  8. Taste the sauce and season with salt and pepper as needed.
  9. Slice the steaks, plate them, and drizzle the Parmesan cream sauce over the top. Garnish with chopped parsley.

Notes

Resting the steak after cooking enables juices to redistribute, resulting in a more flavorful bite. Slicing against the grain enhances tenderness.
