Ingredients

• 4 pieces thin-cut beef steaks (sirloin or filet mignon recommended)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 12 ounces white mushrooms, sliced
• 0.25 cup dry white wine (optional)
• 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
• 0.25 cup heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Season both sides of the thin-cut steaks with salt and black pepper. Allow them to come to room temperature for about 15 minutes before cooking.

Step 2

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the steaks and sear for 2-3 minutes per side until browned and cooked to your preferred doneness (medium-rare is recommended). Remove the steaks and set them aside, loosely tented with foil to keep warm.

Step 3

Reduce the heat to medium and add 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter to the same skillet. Add the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for 5-7 minutes or until they are golden brown and tender. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.

Step 5

Deglaze the skillet with the dry white wine (if using) by pouring it in and scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Let the wine reduce by half, about 2 minutes.

Step 6

Stir in the fresh thyme and the heavy cream. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon. Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.

Step 7

Remove the skillet from heat and whisk in the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter to give the sauce a glossy finish.

Step 8

Return the steaks to the skillet, spoon some of the mushroom sauce over them, and let everything warm through for 1-2 minutes.

Step 9

Serve the steaks with the mushroom sauce spooned generously on top. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley. Enjoy with a side of mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or crusty bread.
