Directions

1. Season the ribeye steaks evenly with salt and pepper on both sides.
2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of butter.
3. Once the butter is melted and bubbling, add the steaks to the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side.
4. Flip the steaks using tongs, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and the minced garlic to the skillet, and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes for medium-rare.
5. Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes.
6. In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add the heavy cream, whisking continuously to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom.
7. Add the grated Parmesan cheese to the skillet and whisk until the sauce is thickened, about 3-4 minutes.
8. Taste the sauce and season with salt and pepper as needed.
9. Slice the steaks, plate them, and drizzle the Parmesan cream sauce over the top. Garnish with chopped parsley.

Tips & Variations

• Ingredient Substitutions: You can use sirloin or filet mignon instead of ribeye for a leaner cut of meat. For a non-dairy alternative, try cashew cream or coconut cream in place of heavy cream.
• Optional Variations: Consider adding sautéed mushrooms or spinach to the cream sauce for added flavor and nutrition. A splash of white wine can also enhance the sauce’s richness.
• Storage or Reheating Tips: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove over low heat, adding a splash of cream to maintain the sauce’s consistency.
