Steak with Mushroom Sauce Recipe

Ingredients:

• For the Steak:
  • 2 ribeye or sirloin steaks (about 1 inch thick)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
• For the Mushroom Sauce:
  • 8 oz (about 225g) mushrooms (cremini or button), sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme (or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Steaks:

• Remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes. Season both sides with salt and pepper.

2. Cook the Steaks:

• In a skillet over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil and butter. Once hot, add the steaks to the skillet.
• Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare (adjust cooking time for your preferred doneness). Once cooked, remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a plate, covered loosely with foil.

3. Make the Mushroom Sauce:

• In the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are golden brown and have released their moisture.
• Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
• Pour in the beef broth and scrape the bottom of the skillet to deglaze, releasing any flavorful bits. Let it simmer for about 2-3 minutes.
• Stir in the heavy cream, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, salt, and pepper. Let the sauce simmer for another 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened.

4. Serve:

• Slice the steaks if desired and plate them. Spoon the mushroom sauce over the steaks and garnish with fresh parsley.

Enjoy!
