Equipment

  • 1 Skillet

Ingredients

  • 2 Steaks (NY Strip, Rib Eye or Filet Mignon)
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Pepper
  • 2 tbsp Oil
  • 2 tbsp Butter
  • 2 tbsp Garlic Minced
  • 1/2 cup Beef Broth
  • 1/2 cup Heavy Cream
  • 1 cup Parmesan grated
  • 1 tsp Oregano
  • 1 tsp Thyme
  • 1/2 cup Sundried Tomatoes chopped
  • 1 cup Fresh Basil and Parmesan For garnishing

Instructions

  • Pat steaks dry and season with salt and pepper then set aside.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Pour in the olive oil, once it's heated add the steaks to the skillet and cook undisturbed on the first side for about 3 minutes then carefully flip each one.
  • Continue to cook the steaks for another 3 to 4 minutes on the second side for rare to medium-rare. For medium, cook 4 to 5 minutes on the second side; for well-done, cook 5 to 6 minutes on the second side.
  • Remove the steaks from the skillet, set aside on a cutting board and cover with foil. (This helps the juices redistribute as the steaks rest).
  • In the same skillet, (there will be juices released from the steak in the pan) add the butter and minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant.
  • Stir in the beef broth and heavy cream, deglazing the pot as you stir. Then add the parmesan cheese, oregano, and thyme and stir together on a low to medium heat.
  • Finally, add the sun dried tomatoes to the skillet and stir until the sauce is well combined. Continue stirring and on a low simmer for 5 minutes as the sauce thickens and bubbles.
  • Add the steak back in for 5 more minutes, spooning the sauce over the steak, until heated through.
  • Garnish with fresh chopped basil and grated parmesan and serve warm over mashed potatoes, rice or your favorite pasta!

Notes

Storage and Reheating Instructions:
  • The steak is best made and served fresh. If you do have some leftovers, you can transfer them into an airtight container and refrigerate them for 2-3 days.
  • The dish is best reheated in the microwave, or in a pan over the stovetop- just remember to keep the heat low and add a bit of water to retain the juiciness.
Other FAQ Suggestions:
  • What Can I Use Instead of Sundried Tomatoes? If you don't have sundried tomatoes, you could use chopped up tomatoes and a bit of tomato paste for some color and tanginess.
  • What Can I Use Instead of Beef Broth? If you don't have it, Alternatively, you could use a stock cube for some of that flavor punch.
  • How Do I Serve the Marry Me Steak? You can enjoy the steak on its own or with some mashed potatoes or buttered pasta on the side.
