Ingredients
  

For the steak
  • 4 pieces ribeye steaks (About 1-inch thick, 8 oz each.)
  • to taste salt For seasoning
  • to taste pepper For seasoning
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 4 cloves garlic (Minced.) Added at the end to prevent burning
For the sauce
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese Use fresh for better flavor
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (For garnish.) Adds color and flavor

Method
 

Preparation
  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.
Cooking
  1. Once the butter is melted and bubbling, add the steaks to the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side.
  2. 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 medium-rare.
  3. Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes.
  4. In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add the heavy cream, whisking continuously to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom.
  5. Add the grated Parmesan cheese to the skillet and whisk until the sauce is thickened, about 3-4 minutes.
  6. Taste the sauce and season with salt and pepper as needed.
  7. Slice the steaks, plate them, and drizzle the Parmesan cream sauce over the top. Garnish with chopped parsley.

Notes

Serve the steak slices on a warm plate and pour the Parmesan cream sauce over the top. Pair the dish with simple sides like roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes. Store cooked steak and sauce in airtight containers in the fridge for up to 4 days.
