Ingredients

• 2 pieces (8-10 oz each) ribeye steak
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 large, thinly sliced yellow onion
• 3 minced garlic cloves
• 8 ounces (sliced) baby bella mushrooms
• 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup beef broth
• 0.5 cup dry red wine
• 1 teaspoon (optional, to thicken sauce) all-purpose flour

Directions

Step 1

Take the steaks out of the refrigerator 20-30 minutes before cooking to let them come to room temperature. Pat dry with paper towels and season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steaks and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until a golden-brown crust forms. Lower the heat to medium and cook for another 2-3 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or to desired doneness. Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a plate, tented with foil.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter. Lower the heat to medium and add the onions, cooking for 5-7 minutes until softened and caramelized.

Step 4

Add the mushrooms and garlic to the skillet and sauté for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms release their liquid and become golden brown.

Step 5

Stir in the beef broth, dry red wine, and rosemary sprigs. Let the mixture come to a gentle simmer. If you'd like a thicker sauce, whisk the optional teaspoon of flour into 2 tablespoons of the broth or wine before adding it to the skillet.

Step 6

Simmer the sauce for 5-7 minutes to reduce slightly and allow the flavors to deepen. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, if needed.

Step 7

Turn off the heat and stir in the remaining tablespoon of butter to add richness to the sauce.

Step 8

Plate the steaks and spoon the onion-mushroom sauce generously over the top. Serve immediately with your choice of sides, such as roasted potatoes or crusty bread.
