- Heat a heavy skillet (cast iron works best) over medium-high heat.
- Add olive oil and 1 tbsp of butter. Once hot and sizzling, carefully add the steaks.
- Cook 4–5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust to your preferred doneness.
- Transfer steaks to a plate.
Step 3: Rest the Steaks
- Loosely cover with foil and let rest 5–10 minutes while you make the sauce.
Step 4: Make the Creamy Garlic Sauce
- Lower heat to medium and add the remaining 2 tbsp butter to the same pan.
- Sauté minced garlic for about 30 seconds until fragrant—do not burn.
- Pour in ½ cup beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the pan.
- Stir in 1 cup heavy cream, ¼ cup Parmesan cheese, and 1 tsp Italian seasoning.
- Simmer gently for a few minutes until the sauce thickens to creamy perfection.
Step 5: Combine Steaks & Sauce
- Return the rested steaks to the skillet.
- Spoon sauce over the steaks and let them warm in the sauce for 1–2 minutes to soak up extra flavor.
Step 6: Serve & Enjoy
- Plate the steaks, drizzle with more sauce, and sprinkle with fresh parsley.
- Serve immediately while warm.
