Garlic Butter Steak

Juicy pan-seared steak drenched in a rich Parmesan cream sauce for an easy steak dinner with steakhouse-style comfort.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ribeye or NY strip steaks (room temp)
  • Salt & freshly cracked pepper, to taste
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 3 garlic cloves, smashed
  • 2 sprigs fresh rosemary or thyme
  • 1 tbsp butter (for sauce)
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced (for sauce)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup freshly grated Parmesan
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard (optional)
  • 1 tbsp chopped parsley
  • Salt & black pepper, to taste (for sauce)

Instructions

  1. Pat steaks dry and season both sides with salt and pepper. In a hot cast-iron pan, add olive oil and sear steak 3–4 minutes per side. Add butter, smashed garlic, and rosemary. Baste steaks with the butter.
  2. Remove steaks and let them rest 5–7 minutes.
  3. In the same pan, melt butter and sauté minced garlic for 1 min. Pour in cream, bring to a low simmer, and stir in Parmesan until melted and smooth. Add Dijon mustard and chopped parsley.
  4. Slice the steak against the grain and lay it on your plate. Pour the sauce over the top.
  5. Serve with sides like green beans, mashed potatoes, or seasoned wedges.

Notes

  • Letting the steak rest ensures juiciness.
  • Use freshly grated Parmesan for the best sauce texture.
  • Adjust seasoning to taste.
