Ingredients

  • 2 ribeye or sirloin steaks about 1 inch thick for even cooking
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil for searing the steaks
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups mushrooms, sliced cremini, button, or a mix works beautifully
  • 2 tablespoons butter for sautéing the mushrooms
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup parmesan cheese, grated
  • 4 medium potatoes, cut into wedges russet or yukon gold
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil for wedges
  • 2 cups lettuce leaves any variety you prefer
  • 1 medium tomato, sliced
  • 1 medium cucumber, sliced
  • Optional toppings fresh thyme, rosemary, red pepper flakes, or lemon juice

Instructions

  • Season the Steaks: Pat your steaks dry with paper towels, then combine the garlic powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt in a small bowl. Rub this seasoning blend evenly over both sides of each steak.
  • Heat the Skillet: Pour 2 tablespoons of olive oil into a large skillet and heat it over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes until the oil just begins to shimmer.
  • Sear the Steaks: Carefully place the steaks in the hot skillet and cook without moving them for 4-5 minutes on the first side until a golden crust forms. Flip and cook for another 4-5 minutes on the second side for medium-rare doneness. Remove the steaks to a plate and let them rest for 5 minutes.
  • Prepare the Potatoes: Toss cut potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet. Bake at 400°F for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until golden and crispy.
  • Sauté the Mushrooms: In the same skillet you used for the steaks, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture and begin to brown.
  • Add the Garlic: Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  • Build the Sauce: Pour in 1 cup of heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Reduce heat to medium and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to thicken slightly.
  • Finish with Cheese: Stir in 1 cup of grated parmesan cheese until fully melted and combined, about 1-2 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  • Assemble the Plates: Arrange fresh lettuce leaves on each plate as the base. Top the lettuce with sliced tomato and cucumber for a fresh contrast to the rich steak and sauce. Place a rested steak on each plate alongside the salad. Spoon the creamy mushroom sauce generously over each steak and arrange the crispy potato wedges on the plate.
