Ingredients

• 2 pieces (6 oz each) steak fillets
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 cloves (minced) garlic
• 2 sprigs fresh thyme
• 8 ounces (sliced) button mushrooms
• 1 cup beef broth
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons (chopped, for garnish) parsley

Directions

Step 1

Season both sides of the steak fillets with salt and black pepper. Let them rest at room temperature for 15 minutes while preparing the other ingredients.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

Step 3

Sear the steak fillets for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust cook time to your preferred doneness. Add 1 tablespoon of butter and the thyme sprigs to the skillet during the last minute of cooking, basting the steaks with the melted butter. Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a plate under aluminum foil.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter. Lower the heat to medium and sauté the minced garlic for 30 seconds, or until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet, seasoning with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the mushrooms are golden brown and tender.

Step 6

Pour in the beef broth and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 3 minutes to reduce slightly.

Step 7

Lower the heat to medium-low and stir in the heavy cream. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce thickens to your liking. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

Step 8

Return the steaks to the skillet and spoon the mushroom sauce over them. Let everything warm together for 1-2 minutes.

Step 9

Plate each steak with a generous portion of the mushroom sauce and garnish with chopped parsley. Serve immediately and enjoy!
