Instructions

1. Step 1: Pat steaks dry with paper towels and season both sides evenly with 1/4 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp black pepper. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over high heat until shimmering, then sear steaks for 3 minutes per side for medium-rare, pressing gently with a spatula to ensure even contact.
2. Step 2: Remove steaks and let rest. Add 2 tbsp butter to the same skillet, then add mushrooms and sauté over medium-high heat for 6-7 minutes until deeply golden and crispy at the edges, stirring occasionally.
3. Step 3: Add minced garlic and thyme, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant, then deglaze with white wine, scraping up browned bits. Simmer for 2 minutes until liquid reduces by half, then stir in heavy cream and remaining 1 tbsp butter until sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
