Creamy Mushroom Sirloin Steak

How to make it

1. 1

   First things first, pat your sirloin steaks really dry with paper towels. This helps them get a beautiful sear. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper.

2. 2

   Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add just a touch of olive oil or butter to coat the bottom. Once it's shimmering, carefully place your steaks in the pan.

3. 3

   Sear the steaks for about 3 to 5 minutes per side for a perfect medium-rare. If you prefer them more done, cook a little longer. Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a plate, tented loosely with foil, while you make the sauce.

4. 4

   Reduce the heat to medium. Add the sliced mushrooms to the same skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until they release their liquid and turn a lovely golden brown. This usually takes about 5 to 7 minutes.

5. 5

   Stir in the minced garlic and cook for just another minute until you can smell that wonderful aroma. Pour in the heavy cream and bring it to a gentle simmer. Let it bubble lightly for 2 to 3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly. Finally, stir in the fresh parsley.

6. 6

   Slice your rested steaks against the grain. Serve them immediately with a generous spoonful of that delicious creamy mushroom sauce right over the top. Enjoy every bite!
