🛒 Ingredients:
- 2 rib-eye steaks (or your favorite cut)
- Salt & black pepper to taste
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms (cremini or button)
- 1/2 cup beef broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 tbsp soy sauce (optional, for umami boost)
- 1 tsp thyme (fresh or dried)
- Fresh parsley for garnish 🌿
🍳 Directions:
1️⃣ Season & Sear
Generously season steaks on both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear steaks for about 3–4 minutes per side (medium-rare), or to your liking.
Remove from skillet and let them rest.
2️⃣ Build the Gravy
In the same skillet, melt the butter. Add onion and garlic, sautéing until soft and fragrant (2–3 minutes).
Toss in the mushrooms and cook until golden brown (about 5 minutes).
3️⃣ Deglaze & Simmer
Pour in beef broth, thyme, and soy sauce (if using).
Scrape the bottom to release all the delicious browned bits. Let it simmer for 3–4 minutes.
4️⃣ Make It Creamy
Reduce heat to low. Stir in the heavy cream and let it bubble gently for 3–5 minutes until thickened to a rich, creamy consistency.
5️⃣ Bring It Together
Return the steaks to the skillet. Spoon the luscious mushroom gravy over the top and let everything warm through for 2–3 minutes.
6️⃣ Serve & Savor
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot with mashed potatoes, steamed greens, or even buttered noodles for a dreamy finish! 😋
