Ingredients
  

2 ribeye steaks (about 1-inch thick)

Salt and black pepper, to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup heavy cream

½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (or ½ teaspoon dried thyme)

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Steaks: Take the steaks out of the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.

    Sear the Steaks: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the steaks in the skillet and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until they reach your desired doneness. Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a plate, loosely covered with foil.

      Make the Garlic Cream Sauce: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

        Add the Cream: Pour in the heavy cream, stirring constantly. Add the grated Parmesan cheese, Dijon mustard, and thyme. Simmer the mixture while stirring gently for about 3-4 minutes, or until the sauce thickens slightly.

          Season the Sauce: Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.

            Serve: Slice the steaks (if desired) and arrange them on plates. Generously drizzle the garlic cream sauce over the top.

              Garnish: Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the steaks for a touch of color and freshness.

                  - Presentation Tips: Serve the steaks on warm plates, with a side of roasted vegetables or garlic mashed potatoes for a complete meal. A sprinkle of extra Parmesan cheese and a few sprigs of thyme can enhance the visual appeal.
