Scale

Prep your ingredients: Start by taking your steaks out of the refrigerator about 30 minutes before cooking. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
Heat the skillet: In a large cast-iron skillet (or heavy-bottom pan), melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat. When the butter starts to bubble, it’s time to add the steaks.
Sear the steaks: Place the steaks in the hot skillet, making sure not to overcrowd. Leave them undisturbed for about 4-5 minutes. This allows a nice crust to form. Flip them over and add the remaining butter, along with the minced garlic.
Baste and finish cooking: As the garlic sizzles, take a spoon and baste the melted butter over the top of the steaks. Cook for another 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, or longer if desired.
Remove and rest: Once cooked to your liking, remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a plate for about 5 minutes.
Make the sauce: In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and pour in the heavy cream. Scrape any delicious bits left from the steaks with a wooden spoon. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and let it bubble gently until thickened, about 3-4 minutes.
Serve: Slice the steaks against the grain and drizzle with the creamy sauce. Garnish with chopped parsley for that finishing touch.

For a lighter sauce, use half-and-half instead of heavy cream. You can also add sautéed mushrooms to the sauce for extra flavor.
