Ingredients
Scale
- 4 pieces ribeye steaks (about 1-inch thick, 8 oz. each)
- To taste salt
- To taste pepper
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 4 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
- Start by taking your ribeye steaks out of the fridge about 30-45 minutes before cooking.
- Season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until melted.
- Add the ribeye steaks to the pan and let them sear for about 4-5 minutes.
- Flip the steaks using tongs to prevent any juice from escaping.
- Now add the remaining butter and minced garlic to the pan.
- Check for doneness with a meat thermometer—medium-rare is 130-135°F (54-57°C).
- Remove the steaks and let them rest for at least 5-10 minutes.
- Lower the heat and add heavy cream to the same skillet, scraping the brown bits off the bottom.
- Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.
- Plate the steaks and drizzle with the creamy Parmesan sauce, and garnish with parsley.
