Ingredients
  

Steak

  • 3 lbs Ribeye steak about 1½ inch thick cuts
  • Salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp cooking oil for pan-searing
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter for finishing steak

Mushroom Creamy Sauce

  • 2 tbsp cooking oil
  • ½ lb mushrooms sliced
  • 1 head garlic minced
  • 1 medium onion finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • ½ cup all-purpose cream
  • 1 tbsp dried thyme
  • 1 tbsp white sugar
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tsp cornstarch + 3 tbsp water for slurry

Instructions
 

Steak

  • Pat the ribeye steaks dry using paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and ground black pepper.
  • Heat 1 tbsp cooking oil in a heavy skillet or cast iron pan over medium-high heat.
  • Once hot, place the steaks in the pan and sear for 3–5 minutes on the first side without moving.
  • Flip and sear the other side for another 3–5 minutes, depending on your desired doneness.
  • Add 1 tbsp butter during the last minute of cooking. Spoon the melted butter over the steak to baste.
  • Remove steaks and rest on a plate covered with foil.

The mushroom sauce

  • In the same pan (do not clean), add 2 tbsp cooking oil over medium heat.
  • Sauté the onions until soft and translucent, then add garlic and cook until fragrant.
  • Add the mushrooms, season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and cook until golden brown.
  • Add 1 tbsp butter, stir until melted, then mix in 1 cup beef broth.
  • Pour in the all-purpose cream, then stir in the dried thyme and white sugar.
  • Simmer on low for 2–3 minutes.
  • If the sauce is too thin, mix 1 tsp cornstarch with 3 tbsp water, then slowly stir it into the sauce until it thickens.
  • Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
